the saddest lines
are the ones that come out
without even a second of thought,
[the ones that have begged
to escape for so long
that they can no longer
contain themselves];
the ones that scream of grief
[and a tinge of desperation];
the ones that slither themselves
into your mind with a bouquet of flowers,
enticing you with good times
and sweet dreams
[but are really just taking
your life away from you]
