Anita Atina: A Poignant Tale of Darkness and Revenge 🐍

Coiled in the dark biding time, it lay <br />T’was not long before the lonely snake <br />Struck back, releasing deadly venom <br /> <br />Paralysing hope, leaving the victim <br />Swinging between reality and escape <br />As life ebbed away <br /> <br />The venom throbbed <br />In ruby red veins, as the pulsing slowed <br />Each breath, an escaped sigh <br /> <br />Eyes that didn’t know, anymore <br />Thoughts that didn’t see, anymore <br />A voice that would echo <br /> <br />In the void <br />Forever <br />Is this what was meant to be?<br /><br />Anita Atina<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/is-this-what-was-meant-to-be/
