This isn't a poem about love, because love doesn't exist anymore.

I broke a promise that I shouldn't made.
I told you I'd stay forever and we'd never change.
That it would all get better and life would work out someway.
Yet a promise can be broken as quick as my heart. 
I was the final nail in the coffin.
The one who ripped us apart.
I remember that day.
Remembered the way
Your lips felt... lost, unfamiliar.
So lock them up and throw away the key.
I'm sorry this is how it has to be.
Your smile falls, your tears do too.
There's nothing left I could do.
Don't say a word, I can't speak.
Our future was so bright,
But as you know it's looking bleak.
I'll blame myself everyday,
For everything I didn't say.
For being the reason you didn't stay.
And now it's getting so close to May
And I'm still lost without you here.
I still miss holding you near.
Yet, I'm still holding all of this fear.
I only look in the mirror to remind myself why,
My life has changed so drastically in such a short time.
I'm sure you're off somewhere,
With someone new to love and put behind your despair.
Forget about me like a bad nightmare.
You're on your own and out of my care.
So goodbye to our future memories we can never share.
And goodbye to our love, beyond repair.
