The smell of death

The smell of death

The smell of death is sweeping in through the courtyard
I breath it in slowly
Awful in the beginning
But as it slowly enters
My whole body
Reaching each cells
It ignites a fresh flame of light
Of  a new life
With a sweet fragrance
Vivid colours and splendid hues
Love life

Fear

I saw the fear in her eyes
It was unbelievable
How could she be afraid?
She always walked boldly
Through the crowd,
on the stage and through the dark  alleys
I looked deeper into her eyes
But couldn't recognise the fear
And walked back fearlessly
Unaware of the calamity
That is claiming lives, all around me!
