Suicidal Killer

Notice something

as she walks by?

there's a happy sort of

sorrow in her eyes.

 

living as if she knew

today was all she had

tomorrow she wouldn't breathe

and everyone so sad

 

but by enemy

or friendly fire

was the answer

we all desired

 

would a blade

be the last friend she'd see

or the barrel of a gun

from an enemy?

 

"Or perhapse,"

said one,

"it is she who

held the gun."

 

Could it be

that the sweet lady

was a killer?

...maybe.

 

Of course!

that must be it

sweet young lady

ballroom, candlestick.

 

What a foolish idea

was the thought of most

but maybe the one

would be the one to boast.

 

After all said lady

dainty but strong

had always been one

to prove others wrong

 

never trust

in dear lady

she'll confuse you

until you go crazy.

 

Mind games,

magic and tricks,

are how dear lady

gets her kicks.

 

and when she smiles

it's sure to be a lie

there's a happy sort of

sorrow in her eyes.

i really like this piece..
it almost has that comic book appeal to it..
you know, like catwoman or someone like that..
where she just doesn't care..
she lives on the edge..
and maybe she wants the end to happen..
and that's why she does what she does..

This is awesome....she does what she does hoping for the end.....she want the end but not directly at her own hands.....vivid....I really like this piece.

Interesting, it's got that sort of mystery as to what it's about but also oh so obvious. I really like this poem. continue to write, you're really good at it and you tackled the ryhme, which many don't to include my self.
