Down alleys dark
where secrets reside
I trace the clues tide of lies
The neon lights flickering glow
Sin city where beauty dies so
The body a silent tale
a stark display
Of innocence lost
in the heart of decay
I walk the tombstone
where justice bends
Chasing the truth
in night's dark ends
The moon hangs above
as a silent judge
Over the scene
a stage for grudge
Dreams collapse into dust
A soul sacrificed for lust
Rumors swirl like toxic smoke
Tarnishing her name a cruel joke
They speak of her vice
Blaming the victim
despicable price
No love affair no romance
No plot twist not a chance
Guilt lies not with the one
who's gone
But the killer and
venomous tongues
She's a wanton
She's a witch
She took the costly gifts
She played with men's hearts
He's ruined himself for her
What a pitiful man
In this sanctuary of wood
and smoke
I ponder the case where evil awoke
The cube once clear now
melt in the gold
Chilling the spirit a slow
subtle unfold
Through a bourbon
I see momentary
grace turn into curse
In city of whispers
In your corruption
you don't deserve purity and
dignity of her
The moon hangs above
as a silent judge
Over the scene a stage
for grudge
Dreams collapse into dust
A soul sacrificed for lust
Rumors swirl like toxic smoke
Tarnishing her name a cruel joke
They speak of her vice
Blaming the victim
despicable price
No love affair no romance
No plot twist not a chance
Guilt lies not with
the one who's gone
But the killer and
venomous tongues
