"Et Tu, Love"

Et Tu

The thunderous night, 
Accompanied with the clouds which carry the messengers of god, 
Trying to sound an alarm to the world of the troubles soon to come, 
Was it a nightmare or a figment of her imagination. 

He used to trouble her heart, 
Occupying a spot in her noble heart, 
Just slowly poisoning her with his memories, 
Flooding her mind with his thoughts. 

Like a strobe in the night, 
You hover in her dreams, 
Only to be tormented with the guilt, 
That threw you away from her life. 

A conspiracy with god watching from above, 
Was hatching from the egg of unfaithfulness, 
As she met with him after a long time,
With her heart on her sleeve and his dagger in his hand. 

With one profuse blow, 
His heart became a victim, 
With a gash as deep as the Grand Canyon, 
And blood seeping as the gushing stream in the ocean.

His trust broken and his pride hurt, 
Stood tall at first only to be decimated, 
With the person who he trusted the most,
Was the one who killed his spirit. 

As she tries to forget the nightmare, 
That she lived, 
The ghost from the memories still haunt her, 
Her hands are blood soaked and her soul is broken. 

Who she thought were her friends, 
Turn out to be her foe, 
As the dagger is in her hands, 
With his dried blood giving it a rustic colour. 

His voice now echoes in her ears,
With his eyes welled up as he say she raised her hand,
"Et Tu love" was all he could mouth, 
The phrase now is like a reminder to her. 

She touches her dagger to her skin, 
Waiting for his ghost to come back to her, 
And watch as life drains away from her eyes, 
The blood now paints her apartment,
And her heart now beats like his forever.

Apart

Apart

With the rustling of the leaves, 
And the heavy summer winds flowing, 
In the middle of the night, 
Throwing every particle of dust with disdain. 

With us engulfed in fury, 
Trying to fight one another, 
With you trying to show off your villainous brilliance, 
While I sit across you just to send you away. 

You look me with your loony eyes, 
Waiting for me to make the first move, 
Only to make me suffer my first defeat, 
Forcing me to find a way out to bring you down. 

Who knew that the game of cat and mouse, 
Can bring us close and understand each other, 
The life we live had just took a different turn, 
And as I trade a life for your freedom. 

The two black holes now have collided, 
With you saving my life by killing the only witness that could send me away, 
Just out of awe and the need for my acknowledgement, 
Clearing my name and taking the fall for me. 

What is this between us? 
This weird thing that we have, 
This misguided love is enough, 
To make us fall into a vortex. 

All we do is just consume souls, 
And crush it beyond existence, 
But what is it about us, 
That we are the one standing alone. 

With us armed, 
Standing at the edge of the cliff and the guns facing the other, 
Only a small window to shoot and poof the one is gone forever,
But who knew that it would be me hanging on, 
Just to the very thing that brought me here.

Those lifeless eyes that now see me bleed away into a different world, 
See us metamorphosing into an aggravated phenomenon, 
Trying to tear everything apart, 
Just to realise that it is the evil that makes us different. 
Like the enigma I stood and you being the paradox,
This is what makes us apart.
