creeping darkness

blinded tears
that sparkle and
glisten that glitter
and dew on or near
the lashes that flutter
and veils hidden to the
bright orbs light
of desire and misfortune
slide into the dark abyss
of shuttering waves
tip toeing lines of despair
and demon only to be
haunted by past ice cold
grasp and lessening to
the demons dogs howls
and growls of hunger
racing time shredding
the thinnest lines and
drawing binding blood
in tiny rippling pools to
feast as ice cold grasp reach
to the last thudding pound
of heart and see the glisten
of last breath slip of freeze
particle second in air
