The angel of death kissed me and my mouth sputtered out rusty crimson blood
It slid down my cheek and dropped vertically off my chin
Down to the ground,
Hitting hard against the concrete floor of this cell
I watch it spread out and soak in
Little dribbles hitting down again now and then
I hear the steel doors shake
Piercing rattling in the hollow hall
I hear a shriek
My hair stands on end
Pricking my neck
Goosebumps rise
Pushing the air away from me
I am cold
Cold skin and a cold heart
It beats so slow
Maybe it will stop soon, altogether
Oh god I hope so
