soul without a samurai

his lips still painted

the face preserved forever in the shine of chemicals

he lays

never to move again

dressed in the clothes he wore to battle

to face the wraith of school

eyebrows finely traced

lips still plump and red

air no longer moves through this vessel

skin reborn in make up

so no one will see the shame

has he took his life that day

laying on the bed

eyes shaded has almonds

eye lashes still curled to the end

blush powdered across his cheek

a samurai shalt show his weakness

when there is a battle when many have lost for a cost beyond value to others

he took his life rather then to let them take it himself

his hands still holding the only weapon fit

the stench has his twenty two grams have left

his body still preserved
