Damned Poems

DECEIVED

Heyy theree, been so long since I last wrote a poem and I just felt like I was bleeding with poetry tonight and came up with this. 😢

To all those people who were promised different nothings but suddenly left hanging, but still holding on to every word the person said in hopes of them fulfilling the said promise.

To all those stupid ones who are still drceived by the idea of one's promise, to those like me.

Here's a piece especially for you. 💕

Deceived

Promises, they were the things I believed in
The sweet nothings that warmed me up within
Oh, how much I'd give to hear them all again
To hear you and your promises once again.

You promised me a whole lot of things
And I can't deny the joys they bring
To hear the assurance that came fron you
I was almost fooled that it was true

When my life came crashing down
For reasons obvious and unknown 
You stood by my side through my moments of blue
And you promised, "I'll stand by you."

Like a king would say to his queen
Your words started flames deep within
Flames that kept me warm were made
But I never thought like memories, they'd fade

When the whole world was against me
And my own worth I could not see
You stuck with me through good ang bad
And promised me, "I'll fight for you no matter what."

But you and I vowed eternity to each other That even til death we'd stick together
Through everything and anything
We are each other's favorite thing

You were my favorite hello in this world of goodbyes
My truth in this world full of lies
The thing is, my favorite was you and only you
I thought I was yours too

But what the hell just happened?
My whole world flipped and turned
What once was at peace
Suddenly turned into pieces

You told me you'd stand by me
But why did you leave thee?
I thought you'd fight for me
Then why did you flee

I thought we were eternal
Turns out we were only ephemeral
Your promises are nothing but lies
Which left me with pains and cries

But why am I still deceived
Deceived into believing all the things you promised
Why am I choosing to hold on
When it's clear that I should move on

I clung onto your promises like it was real
Because for me that's how it feels
I still believe that you'd come bace one day
And fulfill the promises some way

I was holding on to it like I was in a cliff
It strengthens and pushes me to hold my grip
I wouldn't want to let go
Because it will be the death of me by doing so

And once again I believe every word you say
And believe that you'd fulfill it one day
Once again I'm deceived
With all the things you promised.
