Empty Promises

What Could Have Been

By Traci E. Published 6 years ago 1 min read

You stepped into my life

And filled me up with love

You and I fell in love

With dreams of happiness

You were taken away from me

By an uninformed friend

You soon faded from sight

As well as from my heart

We speak of great friendship

As well as our futures

We lead our separate lives

And our paths rarely cross

From time to time you say

You will call me sometime

Or maybe send a card

Or stop by for a visit

But now I know quite well

That these declarations you made

Like those of loving me

Were only empty promises
