Last Goodnight

Fists pounding through the empty air.

          Trapped in a stage of emptyness.

Cries of pain, sounds of despair.

           Losing herself  into nothingness. 

Gasps and shrieks fills the silence.

          Blood spilling on polished floors.

Love fading into determined violence.

          Banging furiously on unanswered doors.

A lone tear escapes without warning.

          Struggling to keep a grip on reality.

Midnight slowly changes to morning.

          Losing her hold on her humanity.

Her heartbeat dissapears in her fight.

          Struggling to face her empty life.

Determined to bring her darkness to light.

          Unable to keep fighting to survive.

Hungry for living, starved for her death.

          Slowly she fades into her midnight.

Realizing slowly, nothingness is left.

          Turning her back on all delights.

Surfacing slowly from a conscious dream.

          Facing the true darkness in the night.

Trying to speak, unable to scream.

          Realizing that this was her last goodnight.
