Jimmy Wilson's War

by Bloody Koalas

It was simple, really. Almost like a suicide...only Wilson didn't commit suicide, he murdered Amber, and her death murdered him. A twisted metaphor in which Wilson knew there was hope, but it was so hard to find that maybe it wasn't even there at all.

Heart beats

And beats

And beats

--

Heart pumping

Blood blood

Dripping blood.

--

One, two, three, four, five

Beat

One two three four five.

Beat.

--

Blackness darkness grey grey skies

Full of evil laced with lies

--

One and two and three and

Charging!

One three five seven nine

Clear!

One and two and three and

Beeeeep…

The machine turns off.

--

One beat two beat three beat four,

One last beat Jimmy's heart no more.
