A knife and your lies

A pale mourn

Over a red idle scene

Dancing so slow

On your departure symphony

You are travelling …

It was a sudden have-to-go

You certainly didn’t know

You didn’t get a suitcase

Big enough for your things

Your masks of flesh to pack

And I thought there’s no need

Or is it you are willing

To trick demons in hell

And fire, as well?

You are bleeding

Are you ever changing?

Or you still hide faces

And more lies to tell?

Something so filthy

Got me loving it

Watching you lift-off

What appeared to be you

Every time you decided you had to.

And I’d watch you through

All kinds of seasons

Amazed and swallowed

By your emptied words

It got me loving it

To the point I was determined

And took on my shoulder a job

I thought I should dig beneath

I’m sorry …

Okay maybe I am not.

I had to do it!

It killed me each time

You murder a true detail

I conceived the truth saving you

And my knife setting your veins free

Are you alive?

No don’t breathe

It’ll make it heavy for me

You lying naked there

Freed of all your sorrows

I freed you …

Yet I still can’t see

What are you?

Don’t stare at me!

You’re dead as the stones

Ones you threw in the river

When you talked something

Near madness

You said you loved me

I laughed

Or maybe I cried

But s**t does it matter?

You lied

And now you died

I'm gob stopped....you've left me speechless, truly....there are no words to articulate how affecting this is! Par excellence....100/100

[Mélania Woolf]

[Rene Salinas]

I am always amazed when I read this kind of feelings first of it just astounds me that anyone would put themselves under this much pressure , then from where I stand and excuse the metaphor here I would get to the "F**k it!!" stage "There pleny mor fish in the sea" yet your percevered and not just that no hold it right there you start to love his "bad" side I even started to like it based in your descripions....
And then after that plethora of emotions we get a bit of common sense to reign and you let us know that you might be an adventurer but you are not demented.

Oh bo what a journey this one

As an spectator I enjoyed it a lot

Thankyou MellAnic

[Mélania Woolf]

Wow you have no idea what a great effect your kind words have on me ! I'm glad you got to see it the way I did ... Because when you love someone, at first you are blinded by your own imagination, you turn that someone into something so special which he does not deserve! It killed me to realize that everything was just a lie ... So I killed him in my own way ;)
Thank you again !

[Lydia Shutter]

WOW, the magnitude of emotion in this poem is overwhelming!

"Amazed and swallowed
By your emptied words"

We sometimes buy into the words, but if the actions do not match the words, the lies become obvious. The person we thought we knew vanishes and what is left is a person we don't want to know at all. Lies and deception....they poison a relationship. Incredible write. Lydi**

[Mélania Woolf]

Deception. It's the art of life. Despite the fact we suffer from it, it's the only way we know things must end! Thank you for stopping by and reviewing !

[jacob erin-cilberto]

you died to me, i got tired of your masks...and flasks of idle blood that didn't really warm for me...
you pretended, i fell for it...and you killed my heart...
now i throw stones into a river of non-feeling.

[Mélania Woolf]

This is a very beautiful review!
Some things need to be killed before they kill us ! thank you for taking time to read this.
