EYES FROM THE GRAVE
 
You think I'm dead
but I'm still alive, beyond my body
I can see your lovers stampeding
like hungry bees tasting your hive
There's no secrets now,
behind the veil I know what's on your mind
those small subtle gifts, kisses in the air 
a shifty hand on your thigh, a caress from behind
That small nook in your closet,
beneath the crumpled dress, a simple stain
screaming aloud your betrayal
while you scrambled for excuses
but your eyes gave it away
I believed your ruses I was only human
only now can I hear the tinkle of glasses
the wine lovingly spilled, then licked away
as you seduced your masses to one heady orgasm
after another, just like sin begets sin
Where did I come in
I was only the one you came back to
a name, a title - someone to talk back to
and now just a hole in the sand
fill some earth with your trembling black
hand, and say a prayer for me
shed a tear maybe or don't I deserve that
you must've loved me once
I'll never be around I promise
to smell another rat, so don't wonder
will I wither or always be your mate
dying my death.. or just living in hate.
