I Took a Life
We were in between an argument
Blaming one another
Telling how we have been hurt
From the actions
From the words uttered
We have been yelling and shouting
All this while
Where the allegations made us smile
We were in deep love
When we first met
We went to a lot of dates
And time passed alike
There was a time
When we used to count on each other
And then we were counting days since we were together
We both became intolerable
Situations were not worth dealing
One day we were into a fight
He raised his voice
And I felt like
Breaking off his throat
I was welling up so hard
He came near me to console
But this time was not the first time
He got along such thing
The very next moment
There was his body
Lying on the floor
All wet in blood
It all happened in a sentimental flood
It took me moments to realise
That I'm holding a knife
And I took somebody's life!!!
