"you're the perfect couple!" they all exclaimed after watching you peck me on the cheek and grasp my hand.

little did they know

little did they know that this perfect couple was ruined
the girl was drowning in her sorrows and the boy was drowning in his alcohol

coming home late at night, yelling.

she wanted the hurt to go away
she wanted the pain to disappear
she wanted the exclamation to be true
she knew it wasn't

he wanted to get his girl back
he wanted to stop his pain
all the sorrows of yesterday

because little did he know, the new girl would repeat the old girl

the fake smile plastered all over the noose around her neck.
