Aftermath

I am the shadow
cleaning up
human brutality
left in the wind
after your imprint
disappears

I am the absolution
your transport
to another dimension
blood collector
bone crusher
alone

I am the solution
breaking whom
brought death
upon this place
in the morning hours
darkness gone


I am the mourner
at your destination
tears streaming
as the afterthought
of your life
passes through
left behind
