Hit by a car
on the road
thrown to the side
where no one goes
head is pounding
nose is broken
ribs are shattered
cars are laughing
speeding by
when I am seen
they cross the street
breath is dying
heart is crying
lungs are burning
and I can't breath
sunlight brightens
road is burning
under me
I weep silently
yearning for someone
to help me
to late
they passed the place
where I lay
suffering all alone
am I still living?
yes
am I alive?
no
abandoned on the street
I suffer painfully
eyes are closing
breath is stopping
not beginning
limbs are stiff
I am inflating
just to burst
quickly
skin is shallow
stomachs concave
air is stinking
they cover their noses
gagging
"poor thing" they whisper
and drive by
as I rot along the street
no one stops
to pick me up
and bury me peacefully
abandoned
as they drive by
finally, i am not alone
as crows peck out my eyes
and maggots crawl out of my mouth
and flies buzz all around
till they are gone
and I am still alone
just a pile
of
sun-bleached bones
lying abandoned on the ground.

RandomA book of poems, thoughts of mine, song lyrics, and quotes most of the poems are written by me. Not many are happy. But a few are. I do hope you'll take time to read them.
