Blackbird

Utter senseless thoughts
While holding the rope he bought
Spindle life’s messes
Cling to the rope, for it sweetly caresses

Tie the knots tightly, dear
For death is near
Suspend from a highly place, love
For you shall be dangling from above

Place the knot ‘round  your flesh
The scene you will leave they will never forget
Think peaceful last thoughts and whispers words so sweet,
As gravity is swept away from your weary feet

Close your eyes, forever to sleep
Your fondest dreams you shall always keep
The burn of rope cuts into your broken neck
Your open heart bleeding from dissect

As you melodically swing
Like a bird with a torn wing
Your hands stain with your life’s blood that you have taken
And your life as you lived has not been forsaken

Hanging from a tightly woven chain
Bounded tightly, made the skin stinging from pain
And this back bird finds peace from excuse
From the dangling of a special noose

    I am completely in love with this. Like seriously.

    Amazing. Captivating. Preliminary Finalist.
