Unharmed Death

Tavia Hedrick

Little effort is involved When planning your dissolve. Go way off the grid To a place no one would bid. The town with first opened eyes, Now leave in despise. Clothes will be left for them to feel Until begin to think it real.

Although you shed no blood, Pretentious eyes begin to flood. They stare blankly at your perfect death bed, As you plan a new life ahead. So cheers to a brand new start For you have altered the beating heart
