Killed Dead (pt. 6)
Life After Death
The sun breaks through the blue morning clouds
Dawn was amiss,unseen
Dreams stilled the wild hearts of lovers
A calmed storm so serene
Then the knife and the gun arise
The warrior makes his way to the cries
Prairie Flower weeps in secret
She knows she killed him with lies
And that she must watch the blaze
to the end
The smoke will clear
One man will appear
One love will emerge
She hopes...and she hopes
The cowboy gives her tall promises
He gives her the moon, the open sky
She looks within her burned desert heart
She softly blows on the embers
It is then she remembers
The love she had and left behind
She turns to Henry and says, " Do you think...
The door bursts open...
A flurry and a flash
Closed eyes to the violence
The sky falls to a crash
Deafening silence
A final sound of a bottle falling...
Prairie Flower opens her eyes
Fire in her tears
Burning hopes and fears
One man appears
"Come with me, Prairie."
She looks up and sees the Warrior
"Let's go home."
She rises to her feet and looks into his eyes
He looks back and past all the lies
The Flower says her sorry with the softness
of a prairie wind
Once she was a tornado
She was once a hurricane
That blew two hearts into chaos
Drove two men insane
But, now she is calm
She has the world in her palm
It is not the man standing before her
Not the man who won the battle and her heart
It's peace she regained
It's the pride she lost...and found again
The cowboy is gone
But, not killed dead
What is truly killed dead is hate
She is free, she is alive
And she belongs to no one...

Great story telling here, enjoyed the read Michael ?
Thank you, Marion. I enjoyed writing these "chapters". I thought about making it a novel. But, which direction to go with it, I'm not sure yet. Thanks for reading and glad you liked it.
It was like watching an old black and white film, reading this! A very enjoyable read x
Thanks,Being Me. I'm glad you like. Yeah, I like to paint a picture and just go with it. Once I have a picture in mind, any picture, I go with it. As I told Marion, I might make it into a novel. Thanks again for your feedback, BM. Peace
I wish you luck with the novel if you decide to go ahead with it x
It is almost done. I want to ask you, BM, if you would like to receive the first book.
Aww... I'm feeling honoured now x
Once it is published, I will keep you in mind, BM. Xxoo
Thank you very much x
Should I continue on with Killed Dead? I have more ideas. I'll only write more chapters if you want to read more, BM. You can even give me a storyline on the next one. I leave it up to you. I trust you. I will include your name.
