A sound escapes her lips,
a whisper into the darkness.
She tries to lift her head in vain,
causing her excruciating pain.

Agonising black all she can see,
I wish that she could look at me.
To feel her eyes upon my face,
as I move to her with such grace.

A fingertip across her cheek,
she flinches now and tries to speak.
I cradle her into my arms,
I feel her shake with such alarm.

I do not know why
she fights me so,
as I finish her,
with just one blow.

I do not know why she fights me so, as I finish her, with just one blow
