She Didn'T Mean It

like flowers
in a zephyr of spring
she danced
in love's blossoms

she loved him
as much as any
inexperienced lover could
with all of her heart

she'd even die for him

oh how she giggled
...teasing about a text
from an ex lover
in a cute little way
inquisitively waiting
for his response

hoping his love was true
as any young lover would
...she knew how she felt

she would die for him

she watched
as his eyes grew
not amorously
as she expected
but anomalously 
to the point of rage

she feared his touch
his hands seemed less tender
less loving than before

his eyes
more piercing
than she recalled

she watched
as he became enraged
someone she hated

she said she'd die for him
she didn't mean it
literally


...she died by him instead
