Death by Heartbreak (And a .45)

Folder: 
Depression/Anger

An unfamiliar car is in the drive.

Walk in the door.

Lights are out.

A dark silhouette of a woman I loved

At the top of the stairs.

Barely clothed.



As a former lover descends the stairway

I see another dark figure emerge

From my bedroom

And stand at the top of the stairs.

My wife raises her arm

As she reaches the bottom of the stairs.



The dark outline of death,

As she squeezes

A whisper of my end echoes out.

Behind the smoke

I see her smile

As I now lay on a crimson blanket

In our living room.



Walking slowly towards me.

The pain of this wound

Is nothing compared to the pain

Of my now shattered heart.



Above me she stood.

Deadly smile,

Sinister eyes.

The maniacal laughs

Ring out and bounce off the walls.

It kills more than the cavity in my chest.



In the dark

I cannot see all of her.

Face half covered by your dirty blonde hair.

Look me in the eyes.

She raised her arm once more

And then I stare up

At the dark tunnel of my demise.



The last thing I utter.

"I Love...."
