As promised, I am here with another update...I'm glad my last poem was well recieved. This chapter actually contains two very short poems...my goal lately has been to have maximum impact with minimum words...probably a side effect of attempting to master the short story. Anywho, they are somewhat related to each other...so I think it works.


LAST REGRET

NOW THAT DEATH
IS JUST ONE BREATH
AWAY,

I WISH I COULD STAY
TO HEAR YOU SAY
IT'S OKAY.

NOW I FIND
I HAVE BEEN BLIND.


PURPOSE

A lack of meaning

Is a lack of reason

For breathing.


Yes...very different from what I usually write, but I thought I would try this out and see how you guys like it. If you don't like it, that's okay...It helped me feel better. :) Thanks for reading. -Dusty
