Page 2 of 5 The questions
Linger in my head
The answers
Are best left unsaid
The riddles absorb me
And swallow me whole
They make up a story
That's best left untold
Page 3 of 5 The silence
Unbearably loud
The gunshot
Mute, without a sound
The thoughts all escape me
I fall to the ground
Just stare at the ceiling
My blood leaks around
Page 4 of 5 The promise
Meant nothing to her
The doubting
Resolved in a blur
Back at the beginning
Reset to square one
A smirk so befitting
Equipped with a gun
Page 5 of 5 The laughter
Alive once again
Just dreaming
Our love would transcend
Her voice lightly wavered
Uncertain since then
The kindness of strangers
Betrayal of friends
