Drip in the Bathroom
Macabre Poetry CollectionEnter the silent bathroom
The lights are off but the candles are lit
The wax drips
Drip, Drip.
The tub sits in the middle of the room
The clock is loud in the dead silence
It ticks
Tick-Tock.
The fluid- it flows down the drain
What is it?
No one knows, yet
No more, it has stopped
Staining the tub
A stain that will never be forgotten
There is no life in this room
There is no sound but the tick-tock
There is no beat of heart, no movement
Except for the drip, drip
Listen closely and you may hear the wax drop into the tub
It's cold in the room
The hostile countdown of the tick-tock
The pounding of the drip, drip
The sight of the room is gruesome
The eyes! They follow you
Or do they?
Leave.
Can't you hear the time running out?
The frantic ticking of the tick-tock clock?
The pounding! It's become deafening!
The fluid has stopped flowing!
The surface is cold and will never again have life!
It is the dawn of the dead man!
Drip, Drip
Tick-Tock
It's too late for goodbye.
