Knife's Bleed

It started with a change and a new promoting career For what I didn’t realise it would end that very year She of long hair, slim figure no men would resist I never forget the day we ended, the first time they kissed On the bus I felt dead no emotion could ever express Got home soon after to release my misery of mess Sickening visions of intimacy between him and she Hoping to hear the door knock as the traitor had no key Alone beyond darkness convinced there’s no tomorrow Him and she laughing as I sat there blubbering in sorrow Insomnia and malnutrition I could not bare to eat Had to stand strong as I propped up to my feet I saw him the next day before I planned ahead Looking tired from intimacy he spent thrusting upon her bed She lies to me explaining that nothing is going on Lies of a liar they set up home day after I was gone

A sad tale indeed. This kind of thing is heartbreaking when it happens to you (I know, from experience).
