ever wanted
to run out into the traffic
hear the screech of the tyres
feel the thump as the grille hits
the pain that explodes in your head
spreading like warm blood
after you hit it against the asphalt
for the world to go black
and you to never wake up
the crushing weight
as your body collapses
and your lungs take their dying breath
feeling your soul rise skyward
as it strains against your body's undying wish
the release of death
the final frontier
ever wanted
to run out into the traffic
I have.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

  • It's Monday morning....don't tempt me! ;) I like this one, it's violent and there are days when your imagination just takes a dark turn. I like what comes from those days, it's passionate in a different way. :)

    I have. don't ask me how many times, I've lost count.

    Not too happy that one.
    Beautiful never the less.
    Fragile.
