His Broken Promises

His touch is always soft and warm.
I'm here- in a familiar place.
He shelters me from the pain,
of truth and hurt and blame.

His blue eyes are always knowing.
I'm here in a familiar place.
He tells me that he loves me,
in roses, cards and wine.

His arms are as strong as a bull.
I'm here in a familiar place.
I know that he'll protect me,
from blood and hurt and pain.

I know that he isn't perfect.
There's no more familiar place.
I know that he will leave me,
causing truth and hurt and pain.

    oh, my neighbour is fine she was just a little shaken up. He wasn't that nice in the end. Thankyou for your comment, where are you from? America? If so, we (english) spell words differently- like neighbour, so I'm not a bad speller really!!!

    it's sad, but this can be so true sometimes. i, for one, know how bad that can hurt sometimes. i've never had this happen with a guy that i love, but i have had this happen with a guy friend that i love. he broke a lot of promises and i know how bad that hurt me. send my regards to your neighbor and wish them the best. i hope everything works out for the best.
