A knife to one’s back, 

Or a dagger to one’s chest, 

If given the choice, 

Which would you pick & why? 

I would of course choose a knife to my back 

Because maybe I can delude myself into thinking 

That you had the decency to attack me from behind 

I would think you waited for me to look away before 

You attacked me. 

I would like to think in that brief moment before I looked 

Away I could have stopped it. 

But a dagger to my chest, I would forever remember 

That you saw me, charged at me and hurt me in the worst way possible. 

And the look in your eyes when you did so would forever hunt me. 

I would pick betrayal over losing my love.
