Authors note: Here's an old one. An old poem i wrote like last year.


He said his heart was always open for me.
But now I'm back and it's sealed tight clearly.
I wonder what happened to change him like this
Who he was before is the person I now miss.

He promised we'd be together someday soon.
I returned yesterday when there was a full moon.
I knocked on his door, waited for a reply.
He opened it and told me to kiss that thought goodbye.

He promised he wouldn't take advantage of me,
And i was wrong to have trusted him blindly.
He did exactly what he promised me he'd never do.
So here I am, lying on the floor, tryna make it through.

He told me he was sorry for hurting me so much.
All I could ever do was just long for his warmth and touch.
It won't happen anymore since I left him last night.
Not because I wanted to, but because he felt that we weren't right.

Never make promises that you know you can't keep.
You will end up finding them, crying themselves to sleep.
Broken promises lead to broken hearts that can't be fixed easily.
But there's one thing I can guarantee,
Someone else will come along to clean up the debris.
