One Fluid Motion
Blood on her fingers
Tears in her eyes
The memory lingers
A heart filled with lies
The smile a sham
The laughter a fraud
None give a damn
Except maybe God

The weight on her back
Too heavy to bear
Not an inch of slack
Not even a prayer
The blade in her hand
Pressed up to her wrist
No one understands
But she won't be missed

Her tongue tastes the fear
Skin clammy with sweat
The moment is here
She will have no regrets
She feels no emotion
The pain's only brief
After one on fluid motion
She breathes with relief

Her heart slows its beat
The adrenaline gone
She completed the feat
She won't see the dawn
Blood running colder
A glazed look in her eye
Her mind growing bolder
She is ready to die

First time in her life
Not a thought on her mind
No mention of strife
Leaving it all behind
The smile is true
She's no longer a fraud
Her payment past due
She is safely with God
