Okay so I've been chatting with mum and she's been having these dreams all of them revolve around the many times my dad has cheated on her in the past.. He is not, to my knowledge cheating on her atm but mum keeps having this dream.. anyway most of u all know my family past so i hope this makes sense if not then i'm sorry in advance... xxx

____________________________________________

A Beautiful Lie

So tell me was it worth it
To see the tears run down her face
You broke her down good this time
I hope you drown in your disgrace

She fell amongst the damsels
And died in her distress
You couldn’t see the bloodshed
But it was splatterd on her dress

It took 15 years of marriage
A bullet and a gun
To re-write all the chapters
That she wished had not begun

With the sound of breaking glass
The bullet left the gun
Smashed right through the picture frame
And embedded in her son

With swollen eyes she fell to the ground
Oh god this can’t be true
Please don’t let him die tonight
Oh god what do I do

_________________
She awakes again from the same dream
That she’s been having for days
Each time there’s a different ending
That starts in many ways

She will fall amongst the damsels
But yet she shall not cry
After all he is her husband
And she lives a beautiful lie

Speechlessly good. The flow was perfect. These 2 stanza's are my favourite.

"She fell amongst the damsels
And died in her distress
You couldn’t see the bloodshed
But it was splatterd on her dress

It took 15 years of marriage
A bullet and a gun
To re-write all the chapters
That she wished had not begun"

Keep it up.

This is very well written!

And I definitely agree with Octave, my favorite  lines are:

She fell amongst the damsels
And died in her distress
You couldn’t see the bloodshed
But it was splatterd on her dress

Keep up the good work!
