Signed Your Lovely Affair

Smiling when I see the red

Laughing at the faces filled with dread

Images of you fill my head

Sound asleep laying in our bed

 

The air smothers me like dust

My blade is slowly starting to rust

The blood, the pain; It's just enough

Blacking out my meager strife as things get rough

 

You never knew

How miserable you made me

You never once tried to see

All of this is because of you

 

When you find me in the morning

Will you even begin mourning?

No, I think, I doubt it,

All you'll do is start running

 

My eyes begin to feel dense

Each breath is now making me wince

You will find my note covered in bloody prints

Spelling out what made me do this

 

On the note the answer is there

Letters spelling out

YOU WEREN'T THERE!

Signed Your Lovely Affair
