Oh How Vile
This story you've heard, one thousand times before.
The ending so absurd, begging you for more.
Your last goodbye, helps me with shattered dreams.
The love will surely die, as I hear the voiceless screams.
Beautiful lies, to dull the pain.
Beautiful eyes, driving me insane.
One glorious day, you'll wake up and realize your mistake.
I went away, for I took all I could take.
Who do you see, with eyes shut tight?
I knew it couldn't be, for you always fight.
How do I still feel, the taste of your death?
Is this real, the warmth of on your breath?
Shadows continue to dance, seeming to never rest.
You've missed your chance, to become the best.
Come and claim your prize, my once beloeved.
I see the horror in your eyes, the look I loved.
You're not quite as charming, as you first seemed.
My grin so disarming, as you silently screamed.
Now as you slow, I thrust the knife.
I must let you know, I took your life.
So many things, you've let fall.
But your death brings, happiness to all.
Lay down to rest, and let your eyes close.
You've failed lifes test, yet I lay down a single rose.
You were so pretty, on the inside.
Your life deserved no pity, so I laughed as you died.
I'll look down, upon your grave and smile.
In your blood you'll drown, oh how vile.
I grasp the blade, that rest in your heart.
My story will fade, just as yours begins to start.
I won't forget your face, as I kissed you goodbye.
You leave this place, with one final cry.
Memories begin to erase, so to all you die...
