Simply Dying. Poem by Shannon Nicole

Sitting. Waiting.
Watching her closely.
Thinking. Speaking.
What is she saying?
Lovely. Open.
Her words are beautiful.
Crying. Weeping. Sobbing.
What is she doing?
Sharpened. Cutting. Bleeding.
Too deep. Stop.
She's numbing so quickly.
Piercing. Writing.
Carving it in.
Why is she smiling?
Dying. Lost. Broken.
She's hurting.
Lying. Stealing.
Why isn't she screaming?
Taking. Stealing.
She's losing her breath.
Stopping. Fainting.
Why isn't she breathing?
Bruised.
Look wait.
She's falling. Help her.
Save her.
Now wait.
We lost her.
