Dead Inside

Lightning bug star fairies dance in the sky
a legato laser lightshow of a sad lullaby
too young to fall in love but too old to cry
I couldn't stop the tears when she told me goodbye

Crimson stained was the wolfsbane which laced the glass of wine
no apparent proof or motive for this heinous crime
I suppose loneliness grows unbarable with time
I just wish for one last kiss from she whom I called mine.

black droplets of mascara dripped from her empathetic eyes
but empathy and sympathy to me were merely lies
I hid beneath her pain and grief with an infallible disguise
I threw away my mask the day of her tragic demise

white foam crusted her crackled lips, her eyes were cold black beads
I took the blame, head hung in shame, I never satisfied her needs
I confessed the crime of homocide to the chief of the police
I lied about her suicide to protect her friends and family

white walls surround me on all sides with a small window through which I'm fed
I should've listened, I should've loved her, but I cheated on her instead
I see the note she left for me a million times over in my head
"What is the point of living this lie when inside I am already dead?"
