I could fall asleep
Content with whatever outcome
If I die then
Let the decay of my small crown
Holding on to a blackened tooth
Procelain keys that rang out
Words about you
And a quilled tongue
Gently feathering
All the fine details
Send notes of your highness

I'm just here. Until I'm not.
“Gently feathering all the fine details ” wow. So beautifully written .
I watched it passed right through me.
My soul.
My heart stopped and knees dropped onto a cold stone floor.
My eyes still pried and staring, watched the thin white veil pass.
I tried to hold on.
There wasn’t much time.
I was breaking down, minute by minute.
I endeavored to reach.
My soul snickered and moved an inch.
“Time is up,”was all I heard.
All went dark.
I could feel nothing more.

Beautiful and sad, I hope you are doing well, it’s so nice to see you again! You are still as talented as ever.
“My soul snickered and moved an inch”
Heart bewitched, played a tune to which
I wondered if you still feel me
In ghastly; terrifying aptly
I held out my hands on glass panes
Asking if I would ever see you again
I only heard the rain on the other side
Drowning out the voices that spoke to me
Moved from somewhere a soul once thrived
Laughing an inch away from just alive.
