A whisper slices through the air
Cutting warmth and swallowing peace
Sent from lips of putrid truth,
A clumsy, hated beast.
You heat draws near and teases me
I want your lull, your trust
But she slipped through, inviting you
Engulfing love with lust.
A bloody scream tears from the throat
Of those who see, and you can't hide
What you have done, my lov-e-ly
And now time I must bide.
