Lies in the Dark

A Poem by Alexandra

Maybe it's when I unbutton my shirt or when I bend down
Your smile grows & your hands travel my entire body
You notice bruises all over my body
Does it even matter at this point?

We're way too deep at this point
And even if it means I have to end my own
I will consider this the best betrayal
The day I decided to give myself to someone who doesn't deserve me
The best, yes the best decision I've made.

Pulsing veins & blurred images of your body on mine
I smile at my actions of yesterday
No one will forgive
No one will care
No one will know
I just hope you'll keep screaming my name
