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.

I know, this is going to be horrid, but I couldn't say this any other way, so free verse will have to do.

The moon rises, but I can't look.
I used to watch, and think of you,
And the dark feels so secure.
I wish it didn't; but it does.
And nothing he could do helped me.
But you could, couldn't you?
But you don't even know that I'm still breathing.
