Broken Promises
Promises Are Made to Be Broken
you promised
and like a fool I believed
you gave me love
and like a fool I accepted
you fed me comfort
and like a fool I trusted
I handed you the gun and turned around
hoping and praying you wouldn't shoot
and you said you couldn't
and you didn't
no, you didn't shoot me
instead, you turned me around
and you showed me love
and understanding
and acceptance
and you kissed me
you filled me with bliss
let me float above the clouds
and I loved you back
I tried to give you the same
I tried to make you feel the way I felt
but I failed
and I turned my back to you again
to hide the shame on my face
to hide the feeling of failure in my eyes
but you embraced me
you spoke sweet nothings to me
whispered beautiful silence to me
My Love
My Heart
My One and Only
you opened me up again
and made me face you
only to raise the gun to my face
and empty the clip into my head
