Price To Be Paid
Everyday he say he love me
The love he has, I just can’t see
He says that I’m his dream girl
That a day with him is a wondrous whirl
A friend is how I see him
But there he stands ready to jump in
To a relationship only he wants
The thoughts he has are things that haunt
Me in the night as I try to sleep
And keep myself from endless weeps
He asks me why I have no love
For the man who watches me above
I tell him he’s like my brother
That I love him like a mother
He hears the words I say
But listens not, nor obeys
When I say to just drop it
He goes and throws a righteous fit
He doesn’t call or text for days
And hurts me in many other ways
Posting pictures of him and alcohol
The thing he knows I hate above all
He crosses the line committing atrocious acts
Weed, coke, meth breaking all our friendship pacts
How exactly is his love shown
When he ventures into the unknown?
The fact that love’s something he punishes me for
Is something I just can’t take anymore
My love for him is gone
Now something vicious lies in the dawn
Creeps up and attacks my soul
I now know my path and righteous goal
Ending the relationship was not enough
The ending here would be very rough
It’s time for him to pay the price
It’s time for me to roll the dice
Let’s see what the future holds
Let’s see how his fate unfolds
Snake eye’s sets his destiny
The price he pays shall not be free
The anger boils deep in my heart
The time now comes for us to part
I call and say I have news to share
My soul and heart I need to bear
Excitement fills his deep voice
Unaware that this is no time to rejoice
The end of not just a relationship is near
His voice should be filled with rightful fear
I tell him to meet where we first met
At this place shall he pay his hefty debt
He arrives not long after I do
The end is coming, I doubt he knew
I tell him to close his eyes
He obeys because in me his trust lies
From behind my back I pull the knife
He’ll never be my husband; I’ll never be his wife
“It’s time for life to end for you”
The knife I take and plunge it through
As the words are heard he lifts his eyes
As the knife goes through his smile dies
Now his debt is fully paid
Now I’m free, forever and always
