Restless nights ahead

Trying to shake off this burden and dread

Rolling in my nest

Guilt preventing me from rest

Blood stains my paws

Reminding me of broken codes and laws

The deed was done

And with nowhere to run

All I can do is hide

From the terrible lies

I tell myself

A single not truth

Saying I killed not you

It was very not true

I fib to shake off this guilt

To rid myself of this filfth

But I know nothing can be done

Because the deed is done

A murder at night

As my paws are stained with blood

And I will never be able to sleep again

In this moonlit den
