Kiss of Death

His Smile faint, his touch turning colder now
Blood drips from his bottom lip
Blood seeping out from his wounds
Wishing to escape the pain
The love between him and kiss killer prolonged his fate
His soul shattered a, as hit heart begins to throb
All the beating and torturing flashes across his eyes fading
She pulls the knife out watching the blood flow through the carpet
Slowly wiping the blood across her tongue
Taking in its sweet taste, savoring the moment

Months later they come for her
Sitting before the judges leer
Her life now in the fate of a piece of paper
Cringing as that thought
Shots of electricity shot down her spine as she hears the verdict

Walking down the hall in a brand new orange jumpsuit
Her pale face, her innocent look betraying her
Other women spot her and call out to the others
Their hands like vice grips grabbing at her clothes and pulling her into the cold jail cell bars
Security takes their time pulling her away
The echo of laughter haunts her as she is led to her cell

They would never know
Never ask why this girl torn apart
Never knowing why she killed him
Never watching the beatings she took from him
Didn’t see her live in fear, in pain, in heartache from the man she loved

Alone she sits in the corner of her jail cell wondering to herself
Would she die young in her cell, would she rest in heaven?
Or would she face the devil in the hot fiery flames of hell
Would she be remembered as a hero, or a villain for standing up for herself?
Little did she know that she wouldn’t live to see the next day
