Typical American Fairytale
A TYPICAL AMERICAN FAIRYTALE
Whispered, hollow "I want you" s
Screamed, haunted "I loved you" s
Pleaded, remorseful "Please don't go" s
Murmured, sad "I wish I didn't have to" s
Pulled strings, hearts forced to dance
Unfortunate words, slammed doors that won't open
Forgiven things, never forgotten
Once ripe love, now toxic and rotten
Clutching hands, hidden bruises
Envious glares, stabbing words
Vicious tongues, bared souls
Deadly heartbeats, gasping breaths
Happily never after
