Exsanguination Poem by Joshua Fegley

Exsanguination

Rating: 5.0


Your body...
convulses and twists;
as you slit your life,
from your wrist.

I ask you to stay,
but you whisper...no.
You can't handle this life,
and you want to go.

A long distance relationship,
ended over the phone...
As you say goodbye,
and I listen to you die.

I have only...
but one regret;
that you and I,
have never met...
