Here, I stand
Over your bed
Hatchet in my hand
So soundly you sleep
While tears roll down my cheeks
So suddenly I could end this
The words you never said
Running through my head
Empty in their threats
Silently, I stare at you in awe
For you feel nothing
You fear NOTHING
If only you were aware
As I take a step closer
Lower my face towards yours
I silently whisper
Beneath your soundful snores
"I could end you, right now"
But I can't
For some god awful reason
Bring myself to raise this blade
To swing it with such rage
And release a battle cry
For deep in me, you still lay
Buried in my heart
A piece of my soul
Tearing at me from both ends
I back away, slowly
Sobbing ever so silently
Turning on my last step
Bolting for the door
Hatchet in my hand
No blood on my fingers
No, not today
For as long as you lay in my heart
I cannot bring to you, your end
