darkest night
seven lines for the darkest times.
eternal darkness flowing
corpses bleeding growing
leave it alone?
i’ll let it roam.
please
show me the way out,
entomb my doubt.

The Longest Minute
A minute. Sixty seconds to say goodbye. That’s all the time that I had left with him as the needle slid into his leg. I stared into his drooping eyes, looked at the blood-tainted saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth. They said that this was the best thing that we could do for him, a last kind act for a best friend…but if that were the case, then why did my heart feel so heavy?
