Gold Plated Black Daisies



The sweet smell of golden daisy's flows through my body as I lay in the open field
A soft breeze tickles my face as the petals brush against my skin
The setting sun leaves a warm red glow as the ground turns crimson
dusk turns to night
chills fill my bones
cold wind floods my veins
my blood like ice
heart racing brain throbbing
then I stop
I realize I am dead
 a zombie
lone corpse stumbling with thoughts of you spinning in my broken head
is this my punishment ?
Flash of light
heat wave crashing
A memory?
I see beauty at it's finest
Your porcelain skin
ruby lips
and your gaze fixed upon mine
Cold front chills and darkness consume me
Lost again I continue walk my lonely road to salvation
will I ever find serenity?
