Pretty On Pink

her eyes
screamed
no one heard
but
on the base board
her blood wept
a name

A few words for Magpie Tales

"Her blood wept a name…"
Surely, the coroner must be a poet.
Startling, eerie, good write.

She loves pink and had to get closer??

She died at the hands of her killer. He looked deep into her eyes, hearing a sigh from her lips with her last breath - then gently laid her on the floor behind the couch, with only her eyes able to watch him leave through the front door.
That's all folks.....

She is sad, but not down in the dumps.
