Whispers of Death

Ok, I know the so called rhyme scheme kind of ends but this is all I can come up with. Help would be appreciated.

It happens again
murder breathes,
and just like a flash
their life ends.
In a dark corner
under the cover
of night,
another person breathes
their last goodbye.
The whispers of death
call to them,
pulling them closer
for a final breath.
Lives are but to lose,
every second the whispers come near
and never cease to take
your breath away.

This was good, just not...I don't know...anything unusual? I think finding some more elaborate words to help it stand out a little bit would help, but that's just my opinion. :) Still, nice poem.

Oh, and Whispers is mispelled in the title. Just saying, if you didn't realize.

I enjoyed this. It was... truthful. Expand.



People say I love you all the time - when they say, ‘take an umbrella, it’s raining,’ or ‘hurry back,’ or even ‘watch out, you’ll break your neck.’ There are hundreds of ways of wording it - you just have to listen for it, my dear.
