cowardice in pain

I'm just standing

or sitting

or laying down dead

watching my life go by

without control

without the gift

of precious warmth


My warmth slowly fades

from the bullets of the past

seeping back into the earth

I drip into a lily

forever floating in nothingness


scared of returning to my stand

I kill my soul

burned ashes of a flower

is all that's left of the girl

all that's left of the monster

all that's left of me


peace at last...
