Were you ever really mine?
Was there ever anything that wasn't a lie?
I know what it feels like now
Had it coming for a long time
Your perfect face was a trap
A lie
The slight dimple on your left cheek when you gave your biggest smile
The marks that would show on your body
After I tasted you
The gleam in your eyes when I used to come home
The way you'd stand on your tip toes
And hug me tightly as if you'd never let go
How my ring looked on your finger
Bright
Shining
And huge
Just like your promises to me
Everything
A lie
You were a mistake
My biggest mistake
Now I stand here
My face wet from tears
A permanent frown on my face
Desperate
Hopeless
Exhausted
I don't know how to live anymore
I'm just a broken man
In a shell
Waiting for the waters
To take me away
Maybe in another lifetime
I'll learn to live again
But not in this one
Not here, not now.
please tell me what you think of this one! not satisfied with it, could use some pointers
