A Soul At Rest

Her voice followed me everywhere I stepped, haunting my love for her when I knew she was at rest. calling my name, my heart has chills, mempries I still try to forget. The hate and evil of this world destroyed what was my life, so scary how you can break in pierce someone's love with the sharpness of a knife. I still remember the day she was taken from my arms, the anger in my heart grew fierce with the love of storms. the hatred of a soul against another destroyed my dreams to keep, leaving her heart to stay in my mind with every single heartbeat. the adrenaline in my veins kept her haunting more deep in horror, the love she still has for me I know is getting stronger. 
 
Each day her memory grew dimmer in weeping and depression stood in my face, the chills I still felt in my body always made me gait. as the days go by, I suddenly cross a man with an odd look. I also hear MURDERER in my ear and it has me hooked. thinking it was nothing, but I knew I wanted to know. I wish my love we give me a sign, even if it kills me to show. I stop at a house thinking was a sign, I previewed at the house with cracks, dim windows,  and not even a shine. the house seemed fettered with trapped souls stuck inside, I walked in feeling dead from horror but knowing I am alive. my heart started feeling vengeful inside, had the tear in my soul with an afflicted feeling that made me die. 
 
I stumbled across a rose I gave to my love to keep, the horror in my eyes but the retribution I felt so deep. I destroyed everything in the fettered house making cuts in my arms and hands, feeling so weak but the one I love still had me at a stand. I find a gun behind a broken piece of glass I MURDERED, I wanted retribution on the man as my voice becomes a dimmer. I waited for the man to arrive at home, I stood there in rage with no movement like a dome. the clock strikes 12 as I see the headlights of a vehicle appear, " be strong and keep me at rest but in your heart" is explicit from the voice of my love so dear.
 
I crouched in a dark corner trying to visualize the odd man, he wears a black leather coat, a black hat, and black pants with red strains. he had a mustache that looks shaved and cut clean, but the horror in the man's face had me with a scream. The red on his clothes made me daze of the blood in my love in death, soon misery will be over and she will be kept peace in rest. The man pulls out a set of keys trying to find the right one in the darkness, I suddenly spot a flash of his knife that MURDERED my love with its sharpness.
 
I stay in the dark corner waiting for my chance, the man walked in but with an awkward stance. He saw the destruction of his fettered house with glass in pieces, my heart really begins to rush that makes me wonder if he can hear it. I rush with adrenaline running and jumping on his back, the gun kept in my hand and that I cannot lack. He reaches for the knife and grabs it too quick for me to stop his arm, I'm thrown over his shoulder and stabbed in my heart that leaves nothing but a scar. Blood leaves my soul and drowns me to my feet, the love I still keep doesn't stop me and still has my heartbeat. The man gets closer for his final kill, but I pulled the trigger of the gun with all the power in my will. The bullet pierce his cold heart leaving his evil blood a mess. I hear an explicit voice saying ' I love you ' and then put me and my love at rest.
