Li(f)e

When you said you love me I hoped it was a lie

Your image haunts me more than my nightmares each night

These wounds and bruises maps my pain and misery

Where were all the sweet words of a life you promised me?!

Kept drowning in tears not because it overflows

But for it's stifling and every moment it grows

These shards of our broken picture frame I tightly grasp

Is a knife to untether, to end things at last ...
