One Final Moment

Emerald eyes glimmer dimly,

looking into the starry heavens

She knows she won't be there much longer,

waiting for death to arrive

She murmurs the prayers of old

considering to abandon her fate

Time drags as she lingers,

knowing it would all end soon

In the distance, footsteps can be heard,

her friends arriving too late

Blue eyes quickly meet hers,

but not in a sense of hope

His sword nearly strikes,

but her real fate was to come now

Faster than light it seems to come,

a blade through her frail body

Time stops for a moment,

and she glances over to the others

She stares sadly into frightened crimson eyes,

smiling slightly as she holds her last breath

The thin blade slowly recedes,

and she falls into darkness

(No flames, please ^^;)
