The Final Blow

The straw that broke the camel's back

By Benita GonzalezPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

And just like that the camel's back was broken Puncturing the spinal cord snapping the brainal column dislocating brain from spine trigging a domino effect of death to all organs with no warning the pain phenomenal as the body shut down, unexpected and unarmed so gullible She was yet this naive child willingly blinded herself to follow the misleading candy trail of bribery the boy thoughtfully planted out leading the girl to her torture so foolish all in hopes of true love HA, silly dreamer girl it only fueled all the fears all horrible nightmares to become reality Never should she have submitted to ignorance resentfully she died broken for the final time.
