Sever

You sharpened your show
of indifference
In attempt to sever
my emotional strings
You twisted the knife
in the soft flesh of settings
But with my back turned .
You cowardly thing.

The death that you sought
Was a mercy itself .
In the dirt of that Deed
you buried your guilt
So you could catch breath
Past a greener facade
wiping memory clean
of the love that I spilt.
