Left For Dead

One last conflict, one last attack. It's just a lie, but I'll not be back. Another hit. Another tear shed. I promise you, you'll be left for dead. Forget your ____, forgot your "love" You're pretty much digging your own grave, _____. Red pressure swells under my skin violence like flames under gin. I'm not phased by your apologies... So shut the ____ up- pretty please? Run from me, it makes it more fun. Please challenge me, I like it when you fall, done. I "love" you... if it's really what you wanna hear me say. Honest, I don't know those words- I'm not gonna play. Don't say I didn't tell ya, don't say I didn't warn- I've resented you since I was born.
