As She Sleeps
By VampireGirl
As she lyes there in the color of red, she looks beautiful but she’s dead.She has snow falling from the highest heavens, her eyes closedAs her mouth is sewn shut. Her hands rest on her chest shaped as a cross.Her dress white with sparkles of dust.Her hair long and brown that covers the pillows nest.Her heart doesn’t beat but her soul cries as it rests.She’s awake although she’s asleep, her mind stops but wonders around.She doesn't feel anything or hear a sound.Her finger tips cold as if her presents were still thereHer breath weakened as she took her last breath.Down in the coffin she raises from rest.No breath she'll come from those lunges that were closed No words will be spoken from the lips of red.The flowers dropped from her hands as rose petals fallDown from the coffin steps out the angel.
