A Chapter Named C

Daggers

You told me it was like
I stabbed you in the back
When i read your texts
I had to spell it out for you
That i had a new dagger in my back
Every single time you lied
A new dagger when you let her do it
A new dagger when you didn't seem to care
A new dagger with every secret
A new dagger with every name
Crazy, overdramatic, insane
I just didn't feel them yet
It was a quieter pain
Until i read your texts
And found the truth
In that moment
I felt
Every
Single
Dagger
All at once
