“You Finally Defeated My Smile"
“You Finally Defeated My Smile"
Yep, you finally defeated my smile.
I held on for a while but now,
I submit to loneliness.
Your persistence,
Lead to a victorious battle.
The crown,
Can now rest firmly in your lap.
I wait,
For what I pray to be a swift execution.
A swift date with fate.
Yep, you finally defeated my smile.
I observed you each day,
Playing Russian Roulette with my emotions,
Slowly watching me decay.
I don’t recall,
You ever point the gun at yourself.
I guess I always knew,
There was no hope left.
Yep, you finally defeated my smile.
I realized the destination of our relationship,
Years ago.
When you truly love a person,
It’s hard to “Let Go”.
As the sharp blade completes decapitation,
I see white horses,
My body is no longer warm,
We made our own choices.
As the blood starts to squirt,
The pain disappears,
And no longer hurts.
The End
