Living and Dying

by Romani Blues

A poem from Spike's POV, it's sort of a collection of thoughts on his life, maybe around the time he's walking out of the bebop with Faye sending shots into the ceiling behind him. My first post R&R Please

Disclaimer: I do not own Cowboy Bebop nor any of the characters, but this piece of poetry is mine.

Living and Dying

Crying out

Can you hear me through the rain?

Rose petals falling all around

Two toned eyes mask all the pain

Nothing left to live for

If I was ever really alive at all

Can't put the barrel to my head

Real men don't die that way

Sorry Romani

You won't find love here

My hearts been taken

And my souls drowning in my beer

So bring it to me

Give me all you've got

All it takes is one well aimed shot

And I can finally be free

Guess it all ain't so bad

If life is once

But I've died so many times

I think I'd like to rest

See you space cowboys

I've got nothing left to lose

I've got a rainbow in my hands

And I'm singing the real folk blues

AN: I don't think this is the best I've ever written but it's just something to get me 'out there' reviews would be appreciated, but please give me constructive criticism, adoring praise or being burned in angry flames won't help me improve much you know ;)
