Fragility and whispers <br />Create a perfect backdrop <br />A scene set in stone <br />For when the beating of my heart'll stop <br />So I'll drink to us <br />And all we used to be <br />I'll let the venom run its course <br />And the poison set me free <br />Never have I felt pain <br />As unrelentless as this <br />Derived from sorrow <br />And loneliness <br />My lips are stained <br />By the sickingly sweet taste of death <br />My pulse is fading quickly <br />As I take my final breath <br />I start to hear music <br />Like a sweet lullaby in my head <br />And I see beautifully wilted roses <br />I must be in the land of the dead <br />Now the ravens have started singing <br />And the stars are calling my name <br />Sometimes death is just so beautiful <br />It can numb the sharpest pain<br /><br />Cassandra Hooper<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-beautiful-death-2/
