[bodytext] => Spirits He woke up that morning with a headache and feeling a little sick He couldn't understand why he was in bed alone But when he had too much to drink the night before, nothing seemed to click He sat up and tried to clear his head until he could think She was probably still asleep on the couch, Where she could escape the stench of the drink He went to apologize like he had a hundred times before But nothing could prepare him for this He remembered nothing; nothing of the scene portrayed on the floor In the middle of the kitchen, she appeared almost asleep Her clothes were torn and crimson And he stood shocked and silent, staring at the bloody heap A thousand thoughts ran through his muddled head A hundred bruises covered her body And he could not bring himself to believe she was dead One of his knives was stabbed to the hilt into her chest It was like a bloody cross mocking him Telling him how she was caught in this eternal rest He kneeled beside her running his hand over her skin And when he it went over the bruise perfectly He suddenly felt the guilt erode his sole; this was his sin He noticed the pair of panties by his side As forcefully removed as the rest He couldn't believe he did this, how she died He raped his love, forced himself onto her And he couldn't remember a damn thing Not even what she looked like the night before How many times had she asked him to stop, she was afraid She though that one night it might get out of hand Tried to describe the demon that alcohol made He just shrugged it all off, said he would try He never really tried to correct it He never realized what he was like, until she died He pulled the crimson covered blade from her heart He would make his amends And an eternity in hell would be the start.
