i believed in you
like a child believes the light
will guide them through
the dark night.
you broke my heart and yet
i still cry.
come through come through
tell me you love me
and the past will be gone.
every mistake made
will dissipate like your presence.
you told me once
that your love is strong
but the weakness from you mouth
that took the form of words
contradicted all of the
sweet nothings you whispered
into my subconscious mind.
i believed you
believed your cold heart could love.
but light slowly dims
and eventually is put out
then manipulated into nothingness.
just like your heart.
