Lies

Finally you found me
but I was already
too far gone.

You pressed your mouth to mine,
and though I was alive,
I was very
dead.

Sighing with regret you decided
to leave me there
because a funeral would be
more than I deserved.

Instead you gave another girl
the devotion you once wa(i)sted on me
A death sentence
a trial and error
mostly only
error

You won’t let time get away from you
anymore
You’re choosy now
as you should be

I ruined you.
