Tragedy I Presume
-------------------------------------------

stir the brew as the cat purrs creation held at a finger tip all he is thinking is "what was her name?" the mood is never right he grows weary couldn't sleep and moments wouldn't fade the sun was waneing all he saw was a frown and a torn letter only a couple blood droplets left on the floor he tried but failed tried again till the wounds were only holes small ponds where his guilt should be his heart lies motionless sleepless hopeless guiltless only wanted happiness he searched for happiness thats all he wanted "don't search so hard because pain is all too easy to find." says all he continued now the brew boils the cat stopped purring awhile ago but he kept petting even though it was only a mahagony table runs his fingers through his hair he turns around the body still lays there he nudges it with his big toe "that's too bad" he mumbles under his exhausted breath. as he falls on top of her chest he closes his eyes in one sweet, slow motion one tear falls next to the blood droplets "she is breathing." he thought "But that's still too bad." That one swing changed his life. That one hook swallowed his humantiy. When she wakes, he dies.
