Witness

By SoPrecious

 You stood back, snickering with pleasure
I laid there dying with wounds you could measure
How does it feel, to know you were wrong?
How could you keep so  quiet , for so long?

You were my only hope, the key to my justice
but instead I am left with just this
a ticket to eternal silence and pain
& your only left with a faint blood stain
BUT you can never wash away what you saw..

That night, ... When you ran in fright..i remember it all
But don't worry, I won't forget this and neither will you-
Trust me, one day you'll get yours too.
