The Killing Word

Those times are such a blur

You will be missed

The comment left by her

Who I had not kissed

Goodbye when I decided to die

She shared pictures of a lie

Though she may have believed

She had love for me I could see

That I was just the placeholder

Until she met the other, I grew colder

This small death occurred inside of me

Escaped breath unheard signaled quietly

That slowly the word blurted suddenly

Not she that spurred me which is killing me.
