I stared for minutes and just took in the scene.
The flow of blood had stopped by now,
And the red pool looked so beautiful.
Highlighted by a stream of light from the window,
I gazed and saw my reflection.
I liked it, and my reflection smiled back at me.
My heart was finally starting to slow and I could see
That my clothes had been spattered during the life ending event.
I moved to a sink to wash away the evidence.
Although my body is free of blood,
My vision is stained and I see only red.
