lust cheating and gunfire.

By lstdarkness

light reflected off the wall,
a thousand flashes light
my cold dead eyes.

laying in the puddle of blood,
gathering from the gaping hole
left from the slug. In the crimson
my soul escaped and looks back
at me.

looking at a sinner. a cheat.
my soul is dead as my lifeless
body pushes out it's last useless
breath.

now, nothing more than a story.
three times penetrated by the hate.
my cheating body. who will tell
my side?

I loved her. I loved a lot
of people that is what put
me in this position. I betrayed
a trust. she took a life.

lust took me to the grave.
now, lying on the sidewalk,
caught with my pants down.
I tried to run through the chaotic
crowd.

people running for
cover, they saw the gun.
I saw my my lust, forgiveness
was three shots into my chest.
