Broken Promises

I stand still as I watch him rip out my still beating heart

He tosses it aside and disappears into the shadows of nightfall

I fall to my knees

The harsh truth of reality weighs down on my shoulders

The tears spill, drowning the ground below

I look over at my shrivelled heart, laying there in 2

I slowly drag myself to the reason this hurts so much

I look down and pick up what's left of this mistake

The blood seeps through my fingers

Love felt like such an innocent feeling; a warm, safe sensation

Warning the hate to stay away

I was wrong

Love isn't innocent

Love is a killer

Love sits in the darkness waiting for its unsuspecting victims

Once it's finished having fun, the prey is left to die

Leaving you in a pit of your own mistakes

Love can't be blamed because the pain is always your fault

You were stupid enough to succumb to the brief feeling of happiness

Thought you could trust love, didn't you?

Everyone betrays you in the end

Love doesn't exist
