Execution





You shot me, execution style
but in the heart, not the head.
Drowning in my blood - did
you smile?

Was it your intention to build me
up and then slaughter me?
Because, boy, I have to say
you're pretty damn good.

And I wonder how many skeletons
hide in your closet,
gathering dust as my bones mold over,
a memory or a trophy -
which is it, to you?

The willing victim, I should have known
but I guess I'm just not the gangster
like you.
I knelt down, thinking I was offering you
my heart;
Never knowing, good god, never knowing

You had your pistol c0cked and ready.

May the gunpower of your deceit stain
your delicate fingers, blackest of pitch
like your soul.

I'll see you in hell.
