Valentine
On this day of hearts and sweets
Walking down these lonely streets
A perfect date is what's a head
But then we walk up to a shed.
We’re now inside, all is locked
Bullets loaded, pistol cocked
You looked quite puzzled, “why are we here?”
In your eyes lies true fear
“What is this?, what are you doing?”
“Ask that man that you were wooing!”
But she can’t because he's dead
He’s 6 feet under, severed head.
She screams and cries
“I didn’t mean it!”
All those lies
I should have seen it
“Forgive me love, I'll make things right!”
Hands are shaking, her face is white
I can not let this go this way
I’ve been so hurt, she needs to pay
All these years the love I felt
Remembering the day I knelt
Blood is pumping, anger roaring
“Please calm down”, she's imploring
can’t think straight, blacking out
I just need her not to shout.
A piercing sound, my ears are ringing
Through the noise I hear faint singing.
In my arms, golden hair
Blissful feeling, lovely stare.
Silky sheets against our skin
God, forgive her foolish sin.
The ringing’s back, I'm in the shed
She's standing there, look of dread
Bullet wound right through her head
Warm blood trickles down my face
I have to hurry and clean up the place.
