Silence

A thrust through the back
Cold steel entering his body
The feel of warm blood on his hands
The loss of feeling and balance
Eyesight gets blurry and dark

A thump forcefully throws the body to the cold ground
Grasping hard to obtain air
Attempting to seize blades of grass in his hands
Pulling himself away from his slayer
The recognition of failure
Turning on his back to see his exterminator

A furious struggle to stay within life’s grasp
Reaching out for the unreal bright angel with blood drenched hands
Dropping tears from eyes that have seen too much
Never ending thoughts from a disturbed mind
Helpless whimpering escapes a fear filled victim

A classic getaway attempt
Blinded by a black cloth too thick to see through
Tied up with circulation-stopping ropes
Picked up by feminine hands and dragged along the ground
Thrown into a car trunk carelessly like garbage
Hit unconscious by slammed trunk door

A mind killing mix of tension and fear
Whip lashed from hard car brake
Hurled out of a car trunk painfully
Smells of rotting corpses and Fire fill the air
Dragged across concrete slabs onto metal flooring
Placed into a corner of a cold damp room
Recognises sound of locking door and footsteps getting quieter
Slight hearings of creepy laughter from a female also getting distant

A dreadful final moment to think
He has heard that laugh before
He knows who it is
He knows now he is forever doomed
He knows the consequence he has been sentenced
He caresses his finger
He takes off his wedding ring
He has realised what this is for
He thinks of the cheap harlot that he held that one night
He tries to stand but with no use
He understands the effect of his wound and his blood loss
He finds a way to help them both

A deadly solution to a badly kept secret
With final ounces of life he gets to his feet
Manages to relieve himself of the burdened blindfold
Finds a cord for the light to room
Strategically places the wedding ring to the cord to create a loop
Slides in his head through the loop
Pushes away the stool that withholds him to the thin line of life and death
Then a silence
Now and forever
Silence
