Her Last Mark
December 27, 2010
The silver paintbrush glints in the moonlight
As it runs along it's skin canvas.
The crimson paint leaks out.
The artist gasps
Watching her artwork
Embracing the pain it brings
The paintbrush hits the floor
As the artist takes her final breath
Her pain fades away as does the the red paint
In the rain

Kaylee- I'm honored that you would include me in your readership. This week is unbelievably over-booked, and I really want to read your work when I have time to sit and reflect. Stay tuned.... I'll read and reply, I PROMISE!
