My Little Lie

You said you loved me.

In your note of suicide

You said you forgave me

For all my childish lies.



You said it was meant to be

For hating me.

I sat there looking at you

wondering inside what to do.



I gave in.

I collapsed to the floor.

feeling my sins

Being torn.



You said you were sorry.

As I held the blade to your heart

I said I forgave you.

Only by taking your part.



I dropped the blade.

My hands covered with jade.

I watched you fall

Seeing the images of what you saw.



You hit the floor.

Blood spewed forth.

I creased a smile

seeing the blood upon the tile.



I tied you up

And hid you away.

Hiding you from the world today.



And now you lay

In my cafe.

Hiding under the floor boards.

Tied with cords.



Sometimes I can smell you.
Sometimes I see you.

Your my little lie.

I hide until I die.

Wow, this was really well written, not to mention, well-conceived. Dark and brooding. Haunting. The thing nightmares are spawned from.

Great subject - nice twists, good explore everything - throw open the doors and let others see different ways of thinking.
