Deceit

By Black_Cherry_Doll_

We lie in this bed
And let the worms crawl over us.
Maggots infest our souls and the sheets
Have become cold. Lying in this bed
With nothing more between us.The scraps
Of our lives are bundled up.
Wrapped away inside. All the death
I embrace. I am doomed by my regret.
It was dark from the start and so it ends.
We lie in this bed
The world crashes down
Around us and we don't blink an eye
We're so caught up in our deceit.
