Sweet Nothings

Did you hear it? In the separation of my spirit
A bellowing from within
All my demons shake and quiver
And you befriended them
Their velvet gaze whispers 
sweetly deception
Did you feel it?
The taking of my life
Kissed my wound and said you loved it
before you turned the knife
Did they trick you too?
Or was it always in you
To know just where to put it
