Don't close your eyes tonight,1
Don't think that you are safe in bed,2
For I lurk in the bedroom planning,3
While you rest your tired head.4
5
I know you sense my presence,6
I know you know I'm here,7
I hear your breathing quicken,8
I hear your heart increase in fear.9
10
I know you thought you had made it out,11
Got away with breaking my heart, 12
You've seen nothing yet darling,13
This is only where it starts.14
15
I hate that I loved you,16
I love that I hate you,17
So many emotions,18
To make me not stand you,19
I can not believe that I fell for your lies,20
I can not believe that I gave you a try,21
Time after time, I knew it was her,22
When I leave tonight,23
It will just be a blur.24
25
Sweet Paranoia,26
Such a beautiful thing,27
Almost as pretty,28
As her diamond ring.29
30
A secret engagement,31
So sweet like fine wine,32
However, it ends bitter,33
When I take what was naturally mine.34
35
Here in the darkness,36
I can feel you breathing,37
I will kill tonight,38
My anger still seething.39
40
I hate that I loved you,41
I love that I hate you,42
So many emotions,43
To make me not stand you,44
I can not believe that I fell for your lies,45
I can not believe that I gave you a try,46
Time after time, I knew it was her,47
When I leave tonight,48
It will just be a blur.49
50
Come along now,51
Not a moment to waste,52
Draw out my daggar,53
Pick up the pace.54
55
Creep to the bed,56
Your eyes wide with fright,57
You realize that you,58
Will be dying tonight.59
60
Softly and slowly,61
I emerge from the shade,62
You beg for mercy,63
At the point of my blade.64
65
I hate that I loved you,66
I love that I hate you,67
So many emotions,68
To make me not stand you,69
I can not believe that I fell for your lies,70
I can not believe that I gave you a try,71
Time after time, I knew it was her,72
When I leave tonight,73
It will just be a blur.74
75
Pull it and shove it,76
In all too quickly,77
Making a noise,78
That sounded too sickly.79
80
Falling in the darkness,81
Bleeding in the moonlight,82
It may have been so wrong,83
But it had felt so right.84
85
You look at me in horror,86
You're still alive,87
But your bitchy companion,88
Is not by your side.89
90
I hate that I loved you,91
I love that I hate you,92
So many emotions,93
To make me not stand you,94
I can not believe that I fell for your lies,95
I can not believe that I gave you a try,96
Time after time, I knew it was her,97
When I leave tonight,98
It will just be a blur.99
100
I took the ring from her finger,101
And the chain from her neck,102
I took the money from her purse,103
What did you expect?104
105
To kill you tonight,106
Would let you off the hook,107
I'd rather have you suffer, 108
For the life that you took.109
110
Just like that,111
Your whore had been slayed,112
A life for a life,113
The debts been repayed.114
115
I hate that I loved you,116
I love that I hate you,117
So many emotions,118
To make me not stand you,119
I can not believe that I fell for your lies,120
I can not believe that I gave you a try,121
Time after time, I knew it was her,122
When I leave tonight,123
It will just be a blur.124
125
Slid the ring on the chain,126
So pretty and clean,127
Slid the chain on my neck,128
And departed the scene.129
130
The breeze was cool,131
The rain had stopped,132
I replay in my mind,133
Where her body had dropped.134
135
And now my dear,136
This is where it must end,137
I just got in the car,138
And kissed your best friend.139
140
I hate that I loved you,141
I love that I hate you,142
So many emotions,143
To make me not stand you,144
I can not believe that I fell for your lies,145
I can not believe that I gave you a try,146
Time after time, I knew it was her,147
When I leave tonight,148
It will just be a blur.149

Whoa.
Damn.

Wow...
That was an extremely powerful poem. I love how realistic you make the main character's thoughts and emotions.
It was amazingly written, and I'd love to read more of your works! :]
