She Killed You In My Sleep

Swiping through profiles, all but a familiar whirl of the old times
Through weightless words exchanged again and again, remembering
Even as you smile at the unknown:

Valentines with an empty seat
Ends a beautiful memory of the dead -
Never will I leave you was her promise

Silent prayers at the altar with
All the love I have but with
No one to give

Just dreams of what we had
And what could be, for
Yesterday was just moments ago

And tomorrow will never be, so
Rest in peace, my dear
On a bed filled with sweet dreams, and

Hope, from an innocent face, and
All the empty promises she gave
Never to be heard of again

It was an unfortunate situation, she said, as
I listened, as much as I listened to those
Sweet lies

As I peer at her grave,
Lost in grief,
I smile at the death of her soul

All the innocence was mine to keep
Rest in peace
