Gift to a Dying Breed
My heart’s a shady hole.
A fractioned fragment... Trace of old from it’s famous glow.
My soul.. Sucked to implosion, just in hopes to maintain its growth.
Aches and woes will erase, erode every trait you own. So,
I’d rather take what’s owed than die decaying and encased with mold.
-jumps off bridge-
The impact takes its toll. Shakes my skull, breaks some bones.
I lay, afloat, not conscious, yet awake. But all is blank and frozen,
Till an 8 foot tall figure frayed in rags awakes the ocean
As the metal links he draped around His neck all clank in motion.
His movement, fast. Navigated water like a swaying fish.
Made His way above the place I’m laying, sang an ancient hymn.
Then breaks His way inside my thoughts, gauges what’s contained in it.
Empty space beside me and my heart.. With thoughts, he made the switch.
My ankles latched to cupids target, starts to move my carcass.
Heart is drooping from the sadness, means my pasts not truly harmless,
Now I ravage through the blackness, it’s a role the moon is charged with.
Tried to reach for His attention, as I grab it, moods are darkened.
“Will we get to where we’re going soon?” Movement halts. Insidious.
Looks ghastly as he fades up to my side. Can’t catch a glimpse of Him
His oil lantern shines my gaze, blind of His significance,
Said “I will be your captor, don’t address me, I’ve no time for names”.
Defies my gaze, disguised His face, hidden with persistent tricks.
He guides the maze, pulls me in Osiris chain’s imprisonment.
Death’s soon, I smell it, feel it, taste it. I sense doom.
Seconds before destinations reached, there’s a wet BOOM.
Scowl taints His beguiled face, can’t do what he’s meant to,
Says I’ll live to die another day, since Zeus to the rescue.
Bluish hues soon will leave me. Cough it up, foaming.
-I zoom out from the depths into my body, I’m groaning-
One rip of the defibrillator hit me hard, pulled me,
Caused My heart to start throbbing, woke in waterlogged clothing.
