Cries in Vain

Silent assassin,
kiss of death,
painful tears
flow from her eyes.
She held my hand
Showed me her heart,
I showed her mine,
I didn't see
The knife
Behind her back.
Always seeing,
Never trusting.
Closed eyes,
With a broken soul,
Clock on the wall,
Every tick
Counting down.
Numbness kicks in
I can't see her eyes
As she hold my hand
Her eyes bore holes
Through my heart.
Her deadly kiss,
The poison
Running its course
Through my veins.
I can't see her eyes,
She's the most beautiful
Person I've ever seen.
As I hold her,
I refuse to say goodbye.
