He promised me forever
Such an unfettered time
And as long as we're together
The sun will still be mine
He's the perfect match for me
And I know that he'll be true
My heart, it skips a beat
Every time he says "I love you"
Even though we're only young
I know that this will last
It's like perfume fills my lungs
Better air than in the past
I can't stand when he's away
I wish he'd forever hold my hand
He promises me he'll stay
That he'll always be my man
And I can't help but believe
When I look into his eyes
I know that he'll never leave
Love me till the day I die

LIE. My boyfriend and I are slowly slipping from perfection into the depths of nothingness.

Wow... this was a splendid write. The rhyming didn't sound forced at all, and the flow was dazzling.
I'm sorry that you feel like this is happening... I wish you the best with your relationship.
Thank you for penning a brilliant entry!
