Painted Memories

Why did you leave?
You told me you'd always be there,
By my side forever,
But you left during the night,
You broke your promises.


I loved you, more than anything,
I gave you everything,
Everything you ever wanted,
But I guess you only used me,
And now all I'm left with,
Is this mental knife in my head.


I see the scars that run down,
My whitened arms,
Taste your blood on my lips,
Remembering how sweet you were,
Wondering why I hold this knife,
Embracing it's cold steel body,
Against my own.

Stephanie, why?
Why did you leave me?
Was I so blinded that I did not see your hurt?
That being with me was tearing you apart,
Knowing all to well what would happen,
Feeling that rage building up,
Once again inside.


Now your gone,
All I have left is this knife,
And everything you ever painted,
Like a cyclone of blood,
Staining my world forever,
With my fond memories of her,
That bound me to this eternal prison,
Where my body shall always remain.
