You don't know what I've done
All the sins and crimes I've committed
In fact
I'd rather you never find out
Because if you do
You may never see
Me
The same way as before
I knew the noose hanging outside
Was meant to be a necklace
Made specifically for
Me
You never knew of
The blood
That had spilt from the accident I caused
I ran away
Far
To a place in hiding
Where I could be
Safe
Away from prying eyes
And catching hands
And binding chains
I knew and I also know now
I was never above the law
Never deserved to keep my life
Not after I had taken it
From someone else
He did not want
Nor desire
His precious possessions
As much as
Myself
I had to teach him
A lesson in thankfulness
But
I did not expect him
To appear while I performed
My lesson
No
The Noose was more
Petty thievery was not enough
Not a heavy enough
Crime
Sin
Against God
Against humanity
Against any morals
One may have
To deserve
Death
You have no idea what I've done
My love
My darling
My light
Should it be you
Who should take away
This punishment
On my behalf
Only to wear the necklace
That should have been mine
Darling it does not fit
Around your soft neck
It will leave a mark
A painful one
But it will be quick
If performed correctly
My dreams become
Nightmares
I must confess
This is becoming too much for
Me
Only because my sins
Are greater than yours
