SLAIN

“Slain”

Slain

Blood-stained

Red water flowing down a sewer drain

Left

On the roadside

No one caring if I lived or died

Break

Jaw and spine make

Cracking sounds with every breath I take

Cold

Eyes and body both

Feeling a separation of body and soul

Salvation

Reason for creation

A momentary flash of revelation

Reborn

Fangs out and claws drawn

A threat to the living forevermore
