Got Away With It

I heard a voice that said there was no choice
it was how it was meant to be
the knife was sharp, it glistened in the dark
no one was meant to see,
The victim walked on while singing a song
clearly in a good mood
I thrust the knife that wasted a life
in the foliage of a wood,
The police came around and told me what they found
I denied ever being there
I survived their preying eyes, I got away with the lies
but still, I often see them stare.

Great poem, John. Very scary, I'm loving that double rhyme thing. I've got to think on that a little more and see if I can make it work somewhere. Jackie
