Murder Of A Lover..........A Relationship Poem
Lover
My fingerprints I'll wipe clean
Erase completely from this grisly scene
Dedicate my effort to making invisible each sign of strife
After-all he wouldn't leave his wife.
A moment of madness, a sudden temper flare
Three years wasted, he didn't care
Now I face a life in prison
For one frenzied moment acted out with precision.
Now he lies silent, unnatural on the floor
His mocking laughter I will hear no more
And yet is that not what sealed his fate?
When I heard it I wanted to decimate.
Years dedicated solely to him
Convinced we both shared more than a passing whim
But his conformation, things between us could never be
Set me on a violent murder spree.
I lost my temper and threw some shoes
He just laughed, must have been the booze
Now I'm left to conceal the tell tale clues
By Monday his death will be National News
The lamp base didn't finish the sickening job
The T.V volume hid his child-like sobs
I pushed the kitchen knife deep past his rib
Conscious our love was one distorted fib.
Alone I'm cleaning up my callous crime
Before I'm forced to do prison time
Cleaning fluids, hot water, strong bleach
His wife and children still away at the beach.
I have the whole weekend to try
My task to invent a fool-proof alibi
I'll scrub and polish away every sign of me
In a desperate effort to escape Scott free.
I've wasted enough time with this low life
At first he denied even having a wife
Now my dead lover lies distorted and grim
And I regret bitterly joining that exclusive gym.
