FLEETING BREATH (AKA DYING DIANE) Darkness encroaches Encircling me My senses falter, Weakened By an uncanny numbness My mind wanders To where I often wander Filling my void With flickering colored lights Of the disco hall; My ears With raves Of the crashing waves My eyes feasting On the young Muscular men, lustfully While my head, Rests firmly on My boyfriend’s thigh, On the sandy beach Now the stern-faced preacher-man Peeps in Saying again, Those words About now! I wonder where I go As my less than threescore lifespan Ticks to its end, In this freaky car crash My mind wanders, here, there Meeting some loved ones, And moments Then, Fades Gently Into a bright white light |

 I'm not a cold blooded killer right, Sean? Anyway, I was just trying to kill her slowly in the car crash. And yes, I succeeded, she died right there in the accident, before help could arrive! Sad? |

Wow, real evocative poem. Things that may go through one's mind in the time of death. Nice one. |

Thanks Bluespice, and Myne. @ Myne, though I have not 'died' before, but I think dying is similar to that.  @Sean, death whichever way it happens, is most often a sad thing. Sorry if I spoil your mood. |

Emeka, that is the blessing and curse of being a writer. The power of imagination. |

Very truly said, Myne, a writers imagination is both a curse and blessing. |
