~~Broken promise~~
A letter to the one who broke me Living daily with a smile etched on my face Going about my activities with feigned poise and grace Upholding my forte by keeping up the pretense But with every step I take reminding me of you It makes it harder and more painful to smile I cannot deny how badly my heart breaks each day I remember it all like it was yesterday When I remember every part of the promises we made It made me wonder if to you it was all a charade Like some kind of game in an arcade The thoughts of you would trigger so much adrenaline What I shared with you was beautiful and genuine Giving you pieces of me that had always been hidden I never thought losing you would leave me so broken It felt like a part of me was stolen Because you said you'd be here forever You had sworn that you'd never leave I loved you hopelessly and I believed It hurts so much to know that you are gone Because you left me shattered and forlorn I had hoped to fulfill that oath to eternity for a lifetime Hoped that you'd be my solace forever Unfortunately, 'till eternity' wasn't written in our destiny
