Breath Blood, Drown in Air

Savage screams fill my ears

Fire burns my eyes

Air claws its way down my throat

‘This must be Hell’ I think

Because, if it isn't Hell then

What is it?

Blood thick on my tongue,

I run it along my teeth

Air drags through me,

Suffocating and unsatisfying

As I lay dying on a cold, snow-covered hill,

I watch stars fall all around me

And explode into pain-searing sparks

Here I am,

Staining Your frosty tears with my

Tainted blood

My family lays around me,

Already taken into your arms

And I am left alone

To breathe in deadly air and

Drown in healing blood
