Lingering

by adrift {gemini} - Not entered

The bullet hits through the glass,
Shattering, falling to the floor,
The blood hits through a body,
Entering, wounding the soul,
The blood drips slowly,
Lingering,
Hanging onto the skin for
What seems like an eternity,
Dripping to the floor,
Forming a puddle.

Reason for writing:

    A friend of mine has just lost her uncle because of a murderer on the loose. He didn't know the man, and for no reason, this life had been taken away.
