Too Tight

Clutching to your dead hand. You were the only man I ever did love. But when we 
got in that fight...my life crumbled down. If that wasn't enough you stomped on my 
barely breathing heart. No long could I take it. With a rope in one hand and a 
dagger in the other I came to find you. But in the end I ended up pulling it too tight. 
So tight...so tight I can still see the life pour from your blank eyes. Not only have I 
lost my lover, my partner, my enemy, and my sweet heart, but now I will be forever 
reminded of it. The police drag me away from you as I scream and cling to the last 
part of you I have left. Forever will I pay the price. The price of taking a life which 
was never souly mine.
