Abandon

Didn't think you would,

Break my fall,

Just to break me.

Your words slither,

Across my throat,

They choke me with,

Their thouand truths.

They haunt me with,

Their skeletal smiles.

I tell myself,

I couldn't have known.

Couldn't have seen you,

For what you were.

I know that I,

Can't blame myself,

Can't hate myself,

But I do.
