The Unforgiven

Now I lay here on the floor, Broken by what was before. In my hand I hold a note, As I slit my throat. I love you is all it said, The very thing that I dread. Loving you was the worst mistake I ever made, I gave you everything just to be betrayed. The pain you caused I can't bare, I only wish you would care. Bleeding to my death, I take my last breath. And yet the last thing running through my mind, Was the guilt of leaving you behind.
