quiet whispers;
please, my kitten
you're safe here
and you;
she loves me
as if that made
all the difference.

me;
i couldn't save her.
sobbing
in the darkness
you loved her.
her;
you took her away.

too late,
but i still take
the blame, as i
once did, always.

love;
poison.

her love;
an aphrodisiac,
lethal.

you;
i love her.
the last to kiss
your warm lips
quiet whispers, me;
i'm so sorry.

her, finding comfort
in the arms of
your best friend.
and i cry.

in death,
you are frozen,
and she is
unchanged.
