Apparition

A lover's betrayal feels like murder. Please rate for my uni studies.

You pushed the cold knife in slowly, watching with pleasure as it slid between my ribs. I could only stand there, motionless, in a state of confusion.

Although I could feel the metal, it wasn't as painful as I thought. I looked down to your hand, still holding the blade in me. I laughed. Did you really think you could hurt me this way?

I still laughed as you walked away. You think you killed me?! You freed me. You cut the last tie between us, but it was only a loose thread. You are the corpse lying on her bed. You killed yourself, buried yourself in the dirt.

I walk above you in the sun.

Alone, with a dagger in my heart.
