A lie

Ofcourse I could not tell her,
That last night blood dripped from the cut on my wrist—
To the floor.
Painting it in a crimson hue.
I could not tell her,
I cried long enough for me to almost faint.
I could not tell her,
That I wrote my last letter with her name on it.
I could not unveil the secrets the night holds for me ;
I could not.

So-
I told her a lie;
Woven by my mind with the thread of words carefully selected,
By a devastated mind.
