Prepared.

My trust for you grew stronger over the years. I would never expect for you to do this here. You grew closer every day but to my dismay it was just your shadow. Your act caught me off guard so when that day finally came there was no one to blame but me.

  In a fit of condescending rage you ran behind me with your long, sturdy string of lies and mistrust and thrusted it into me. You attacked my heart from the place I couldn't see, the place I would never expect you to be. You came at my back, right behind me. Like a flash of light you slashed and dashed, leaving me here to bleed, oh how I couldn't believe how I ever trusted you. I trusted you with my life and you repayed me with a knife.

  You walked away as the blood and tears came running down, the blood was on your hands, but you just wiped it off and tried to pretend it wasn't you. You came back later, the wound still blue. You tried playing dumb but I knew that it was always you. Whispers I tried to drown out from behind me, the knife you hid I tried to hide deep down inside me. The smile you'd never show, you're the one I'd never know. But I trusted you would leave it there, and try not to harm a hair, but this I could never prepare.

  I knew this day was coming, it was inevitable, but I just wasn't able to think of you coming at me this soon. You try to cover up my wound with bandages and fake words but wounds this deep can never be healed, I'm sorry you ever wanted me killed. I'm sorry for the lack of tears, but I was always prepared for you to do this here. Please never come back, I don't want to see you ever again, after you stabbed me in the back.
