The Last Bullet
I said my heart can't take another break
He convinced me of taking those old wounds away
He requested for me to never lie
My reply, I dare not to try
I plead never to cheat
Vaguely, he agreed
But later he broke his bond
Two years after, right before dawn
I still kept to mine
Honest to him about how he would one day misunderstand my cries
He continued his despicable behavior
Betrayed by him and my neighbor
I remained kind, I was still sweet
Until he killed my loving heartbeat
So there he lyes
Stabbed harshly twenty-five times
Even blunt force to his head
I watched as his blood spread
Still left him alive
before the last bullet impelled between his eyes
I stared into them as I witnessed them die
I warned him, I have tried
I've hinted " walk out if you dare."
I even gave way to a sinister stare
You chuckled and continued to give her what was all mine!
I trusted you with a heart that was so broken from being too kind
You've awakened voices
You left me with no other choices
He's gone from the last bullet hole
Still I kept mine, not one lie was told
Here is the misunderstood tear I shed for you
Goodbye my love, we will be together again someday soon
