So Much For Promises.

by ABake   Jun 1, 2007


I said I didn't believe in promises.
You said don't worry I won't let you down.
But that was before you turned my smile into a frown.

You promised to never leave me.
I said please don't.
You said you have to believe me.
I said I'm sorry but I won't.

You promised to always love me.
I said theres no way.
You said I will always be here.
I said "Yeah right, you won't be here 3 years from today"

You promised to never hurt me.
To never make me cry.
I said don't do that, I know how it will end up.
Me here alone, asking why.

You promised to never break my heart.
I denied that one, right from the start.

I'm glad I didn't listen.
I'm glad I decided not to trust.
Because all these promises caused these tears in my eyes to glisten.

I look back now, at everything you've said.
Let's just say, it all went straight to my head.
I really though you loved me.
I truly thought you cared.

But what happened to these promises that you made.
You claim, that the love was starting to fade.
But I thought you would always love me.
At least thats what you said.

That doesn't mean you meant it.
All that I have is a box of used tissues, red and swollen eyes.
And a broken heart, due to all your lies.
