The Three of Us

The three of us were the best of friends

We used to go to mall to keep up with the trends.

The three of us watched movies every Friday night

We did everything together but fight.

But something changed as the days went on

We started pretending that we three got along.

You and I started dating but the three of us still remained as friends.

But you and him thought otherwise and slowly made it end

You dated him behind my back

You loved both of us so you didn’t want to choose

So you decided that you didn’t want to anyone to lose.

But then, I saw you with him in bed

My eyes were clouded with the colour of red

I did not know what I was doing but I was fully awake

I regret the times I gave you my heart just for you to break

Next thing I knew, you two were tied against the wall

A knife pierced on your chest, making you fall

And my dear friend had lost an arm

I came here, not to hurt you but to cause permanent harm

Dried blood crusted your finger tips

I saw pale blue on your hard cold lips

Your blood pooled on the floor

I laughed as I walked towards the door,

Locking it so no one could get in.

I don’t care even if I know what I’m doing is a sin.

I saw red when my heart started to ache

When I remember the time when the three of us were friends

Tonight, every memory will end

I remember the three of us watching movies every Friday night

Now, I watch as your skin gets colder and colder, turning pale white.
