My eyes stopped shining with the same intensity
I didn't laugh like I used to
At least that's what he said
And when I manufactured the reply that he had always given to me
He grew angry
I felt my hands slipping into his drink
All the venom he'd fed to me
I smiled and I meant it
I looked dead at him
Dead to him
It's all dead to me
I licked my lips
Faced him and didn't blink
There had been enough light shed on my withered heart
Enough time idle by his side
Smothered in the dark
This is not what it looks like
This is not what you think
I wanted to gather the pieces in peace
And stop him from breaking
From entering
Out of sight
Out of mind out of my
I'm out of
Get out of my
I looked dead at him
Dead to him
It's all dead to me
I licked my lips
Faced him and didn't blink
