Spilled Perfume

A Poem

promises.

we all break them.

but you insist that you didn't.

that you kept all your promises.

but you didn't.

you promised you wouldn't leave.

you promised you loved me.

you PROMISED you were never going to stop.

but none of that is relevant now is it?...

it doesn't matter.

because now you're fucking girls everyday.

now you're having a blast,

and i'm sitting here bawling my eyes out.

but you didn't break one promise.

the promise that you will be with me forever.

because you will.

there's a hole in my heart made just by you.

i guess promises mean nothing to you.

heartbreak
