A Broken Vow

I made an unspoken vow for commitment, love, and trust

But somehow I broke it because of lust

Everything seemed perfect

But now, life seems worthless

What am I living for?

I ask myself this, as I lay dying on the floor

Every breath I take hurts

Every tear brings memories that burn

I think of how life could be

But now my worst fears are reality

I try and try, I fail and I fail again

This has been my life since I was 10

When will I be able to not mess up my own dreams?

That's what the inside of me screams

I know I will never be able to love someone truly

Because of the voices inside of me

I keep hurting the people I love, including myself

Maybe I'm not supposed to be with someone else

Now I know, there is no way, no how

I can fix this broken vow
