heads will roll

once the lie is told

and caught,

there is no hope in

returning to

what it once was,

whatever that might

have been.

the lie

is the knife, the gun.

the guillotine

all in one. 

it's a clean swipe

upon the neck of this

relationship.

the head will roll.

stand back 

and let the blade fall.

it's wise to not wait

for the next lie to be told.
