AN: I'm not sure what inspired me to write this. All I know is that I was watching a show about hanging (You know, the old way of punishment) and I decided to write about it. Not my best, but I thought I'd share it with you. Enjoy! -Gives cookies to everyone-

Death by Rope

Light scatters into darkness

Shattering all outlines of hope

Abandoned, we linger in a chasm of debacle

Swinging by neck

Our transience by rope

Hanging by deaths hand

Air murders us dry

Crying are those who remember us that die.

We were pirates, crusaders, thieves in life

Still, we trample toward shadow

Our souls a numbering rife
