love hurts sometimes
You know what aches?
Its when you give yourself
All of yourself
To this one person you believed
Would treasure your heart
Within their ownIts when you know they know
Everything there is to your
Beautiful existence
They promise to preserve
Your every breath
Forever and alwaysBut then your world shatters
And everything goes wrong
When an empty promise reveals itself
You find yourself holding on
To a slipping fantasyFor they let go of your flawed heart
In pursuit of something 'more'
They forgot they had your trust
And broke free from the bondYou thought they never would
Let go
You thought you could believe in them
Forever
Because true love could never break you
True love would never failBut maybe that's just it, isn't it?
Love hurts sometimes.
And as you start to walk away
With your hand over heart
You feel it beat
and you choose to believe again
ready to fall.
