Hiding behind a wall
Soul pouring through the cracks
Once it's stained the other side
There's no way to get it back
Mumbles an apology
Nothing she can do
No bleach to dull the blemishes
He knows the horrid truth
Pain drenched in silent tears
Hands clasp empty air
Tumbles into the mighty abyss
Now he doesn't care
Forced back into the shadows
Toes frozen by the edge
No comfort in the wet
Heart left sidelined, benched
He slithers back, head drooped
Sly smile playing on his lips
Hand slips back into hers
Flattering tongue while she sits
Follows his lead, false smiles
Blinded by her needs
Like a blood thirsty vampire
On her innocence he feeds
Stake through her heart
Dagger in her mind
Captivates her soul once pure
Slave to his kind
Dragged down to gloomy depths
Fell for second best
Could not see what she was worth
Failed, soul cut down with the rest
