You said you would never hurt me
Promises I took to heart
and I framed us that day.
While you were cheating on me
I was making us dinner
Your favorite.
It was tasty,
even if I ate it alone.
You accidentally left your phone at home.
We were supposed to be forever,
Unfortunately Stacy doesn't think so
By the way she texted "I love you"
I didn't want to pry but
it was tempting.
I found out while I was having a meal for one
You were having it for two.
You came home
pretending you weren't
a *****.
Good news;
I finally found a use
for our wedding knife.
I didn't want you to die
but it was tempting.
I couldn't stand the site
of lipstick on your collar.
I framed the other woman that night.
And The stain on your shirt grows
until your clothes are red.
To think you can be handsome
even though you're dead.
A laugh blisters up my throat
as I text you *"I love you."
Inspired by "Secret" The Pierces

This was an experiment.
