Fatal Testimony
I am nowhere.
No one.
Nothing.
Going nowhere.
Trusting no one.
Achieving nothing.
You know me not,
Yet I stand beside you,
A sentinel,
To bring,
With wings,
The fetid breeze,
The festering zephyr,
An exhalation,
Of death.
I am the silence between heartbeats,
The worry that this beat shall be the last.
Thump- thump
Thump- thump
Thump-
I feed on terror,
The tremors
Of foreboding.
Which way?
Life or death,
Death or life.
No one.
Nothing.
Going nowhere.
Trusting no one.
Achieving nothing.
You know me not,
Yet I stand beside you,
A sentinel,
To bring,
With wings,
The fetid breeze,
The festering zephyr,
An exhalation,
Of death.
I am the silence between heartbeats,
The worry that this beat shall be the last.
Thump- thump
Thump- thump
Thump-
I feed on terror,
The tremors
Of foreboding.
Which way?
Life or death,
Death or life.
