-=Backstabbed=-

i feel your knife
running through my spine.
i feel your sweat
splashing on my flesh.
i feel you trembling.
i feel your fear.
i see your thoughts,
your mind's not clear.

i saw you coming,
with the knife and some humming...
i saw your face,
pale and out of place.
i saw your doubts.
i saw your weakness.
i saw your feelings,
you did it anyway.

my blood was shed,
drained, sucked from myself.
now here i will stay,
the day will turn to night.
but, honey,
my soul was not the one that died

-Morouxshi San


San, the wise
San, the dumb
San, the guy...

"my soul was not the one that died"

Wow! What a powerful message you give us! True, people that hurt their loved ones by stabbing them in the back are the ones that are hurt the most. Very well-written. Keep up the great work!

False gems may shine as brightly as the genuine article, but there are always those who can tell the difference.

San this kicked so much butt. I loved it and i think you have a kick ass talent that needs to be shown throughout the world. Maybe you and me can form a poet alliance haha......or not.

have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of the shadow of death
a light has dawned.

Before I read the replies I thought "what an awesome ending" but now I see the others already mentioned that so i'll just add that I agree with them.  This whole poem is great, thanks for sharing
