A Star for You

She lays
In front
Of me

Draped
In white

What
Am I
About
To do?

She is
So pure

So
Beautiful

But
She
Betrayed
Me

She
Promised
Me
Her life.

She
Lied

So
Naive

A fox
Is cunning

And doves
Fly
Straight
Into its
Trap.

This house,
Built
For my
Mother

Now,
Still new,
But
Abandoned.

Flowers
Thrown
In fits
Of rage

But
For now,
A life
For a life.

A shooting
Star,
A trap
She made

For my
Sister

Killed her.

So
A star
For her too,

On her
Wedding day

Five
Stabs,

Blood traced
Like a
Star.

I'm sorry
But

I always
Avenge
