Memories of a Convict : Minutes of a Murder

i still can't get it out of my head
the email that i read yesterday
a nest that took years to build
came down,
as i read the last lines of it

the bartender became my best friend
and alcohol replaced the blood within me

consumed with rage,disappointment & hatred
i headed back to the place,
which used to be our nest

there she was,
smiling at the door step
like she always does

i faked a smile
and went to our room
the gun in the drawer
was now in my hand

as she came in
i turned around and hit her
helplessly on the floor,
she tried to move

the gun pointed at her,
with a finger on a trigger
i tried not to give in

but i failed,
the demon within me took over
while i closed my eyes
