I gasped as blood poured from my mouth.

"Why..?" I said through gasps.

"Because the love I've ever had for you is gone."

"You mean absolutely nothing to me."

"You're just some girl trying to poison my mind." My lover said.

After all this time, was I really just some girl? This life of pain I've lived was for absolutely nothing. Is this all there is to life? Why, why couldn't anything good come out of my now ending life? All lies.

I've... fallen for a lie.

"Is that truly what you think of me?" I said, continuing to bleed out.

"It's all I've ever thought." My lover said with the most stone cold face.

I... I truly should've been dead long ago. I was right, there's nothing in this cycle of pain. I've fallen for a lie.

"Okay." I said, lifting the knife he once had and placing it back in his hand.

"What's this?" He said confused.

"Kill me, finish it." Was all I said.

"Why?"

"The only reason I had to live is now gone, so I am not wasting another unwanted breath on this earth."

With that, I lifted his hand, helping him with my long overdue death.

All this to get nothing but a lie in return.

I fell for a lie.
