Broke your promise
Hissing with forked tongue of snake
You slithered away.
Tell me you'll stay
Then kiss me goodbye
Meaningless words
Cowardly lies
Dark disappointment
Hardening hearts
Love's not enough
Trust isn't smart
Love everlasting
Disappeared fast
Together forever
Our time has passed
In the beginning,
love conquered all,
dreams were always
in reach,
mirrors reflected true.
Broken promises
and shattered hearts
did not exist.
Now
that's all there is
here
at
the
end.
Goodbye.
You said you'd, "take such good care of me".
Instead you broke my heart.
My delicately woven glassware orb
fragmented into shards that
pierce hope, stab dreams
blood dripping from fingertips
breaks the silence-
it is all the more painful knowing
it could never be what it was
again
You promised to get better
You said that you would stop
But you didn't
I know you didn't
I saw you yesterday
I saw the powder
I saw the straw
So why did you lie
Thank God I have no expectations
of anybody keeping their word.
Not anymore.
Otherwise, I might be
very disappointed.
You were my shadow.
You said you'd never leave my side.
You stayed with me during the good times.
You left me alone in the darkness.
If you promised me forever,
Why did you kiss her
With more passion
Than you ever did with me?
To count the times you didn't make it,
I'd run out of numbers.
Yet, I still wait.
Any expectation is an expectation too many.
Yet, I continuously put my faith in you.
Promise after promise.
