unntitled

there's blood on her hands

and tears on her cheeks

when she calls the man

she'd been seeing for weeks

he takes control

she sits back and lets him

an ad in the paper

and no one suspects them.

one life lost

and no body found

yet the earth keeps on spinning

around and around.

the seasons change

and leaves turn to snow

the man left her

and she has no where to go.

when push came to shove

and he raised his voice

she raised a gun

and made her choice.

she runs from the memory

but can't seem to forget it

her life passed her by

and in guilt she let it.

she took a life

in a moment of pain

she lost sight of the love

she'd been trying to gain.

a moment of pleasure

one little mistake

she killed her true love

for a life of heartache.
