but I was the one who was still alive

 




Standing under the new sky
I began to mark my arm
Scratching out flowers turning into ravens
Tearing up patience until it became liquid
Eternity was only an instant
Rising up like fire behind your last breath

Although this divates from the P-O-E-M, P-O-E-T, OR P-0-E-T-R-Y, stipulation of my challenge, it is very good and thought provoking.
