It's Just Another Tragic Love Tale

by Jenni Marie   Nov 12, 2007


Once so euphoric, needing to be in each other's arms
Now everything's changed, there's no longer any charm
Spiteful words spoken, so many tears starting to fall
No more smiles and laughs, for they've slowly lost it all

He's cheating on her every single day, yet she has no idea
When she finally finds out, it's her wrath that he will fear
For all she'll think of, is constantly making him pay
She'll lose all dignity and respect, her morals will start to sway

...Flash Forward To One Week Later...

Covering his face with his hands, as she aims slap after slap
He's trying his hardest, not to retaliate and start fighting back
She's screaming in anger, with tears in her bloodshot eyes
One person she used to love, she's now starting to despise

She's getting a little harder, with each blow that lands
His vision is dimming, he's finding it so hard to stand
There's blood dripping down, yet she still doesn't stop
It's her vicious blows, that he's now finding hard to block

And sometime later, he slides to the cold hard floor
He's giving up now, his body couldn't take anymore
She's staring at him in horror, wondering what she's done
Unable to comprehend, what a monster she's now become

His bloody face glaring up at her, features twisted in pain
His lifeless eyes staring blankly, making her feel so insane
As horror starts to envelop, she searches for an escape
Knowing she has to get away, there's no more she can take

...Flash Forward One Hour...

Her cold lifeless body, swinging from a rusty old rope
She placed it around her neck, slowly beginning to choke
Now he's lying on the floor, covered in the blood he shed
She's swaying to each side, just two more teenagers dead.
