the rain doesn’t weep, the sky doesn’t mourn,
only cold steel speaks, whispering through flesh.
i press my side; warmth spilling, fading,
a red river washing down cracked pavement.
no prayers, no hands to hold; just silence,
and the flickering hum of a dying streetlight.
no ghosts, no last words,
just the rain tapping against nothing.
once, i stood tall, thought i was unbreakable,
a blade against the softness of the world.
now, i sink, nameless in the gutter,
my breath thinning, lost to the night.
the world doesn’t stop.
it doesn’t care.
it never did.

if I'm not wrong this poem must be about loneliness right ? :)
something died without any last words, just loneliness remains. this is very good :DD it also gives off war vibes, i like it
it's about a guy just bleeding out in the rain
