2-14-13; The truth, the blade.

I've taken a breath of your wind
I've inhaled smoke
You thought you could hide what was going on
But I found you out
So easily
The only regret I have is not trusting myself
Not trusting my instinct
You stuck a knife so deep into my chest
While I continued to walk towards you
Bleeding
Heaving
Grieving
You push it deeper
I flee from the hurt, to maintain my mind
To maintain my cool
I return to make things right
To make things better
To try again
But I've already been replaced
Another man already in the spot that I lay in next to you
And you force me to sit and watch
You force me to plea with you
So we make and agreement
I want to wipe the slate clean
But as I start to look at the other side
The truth confronts me
From the mouth of a heathen
A man without honor
My replacement
My stomach now turns
Not from hunger
But from anxiety
There's nothing I can do about this
I'm stuck hurting, crying
All I wanted was you
I wanted to capture your embrace
But you push the knife deeper
You watch as it seeps in
And The demon takes control of my eyes
Dark fire uncontrolled
I keep a blade at my side
I want to slice his fucking neck
But it is as they say, it takes two to tango
So you will be next
