You said, "I'll be there"
But where are you now?
You broke the promise,
You broke the vow.
"I'm here for you"
Was another lie
And so tonight
Is when I cry.
I shouldn't believe you
I shouldn't care
But in my heart
You are held dear
To my wrist
I place a knife
With a broken smile
I end my life...

Wow *is kind of speechless*
I like this. I like this a lot. It's so short but simple. And that is a fantastic thing sometimes.
This piece actually reminds me of something I once wrote.
I'm guessing it's about a love who let you down?
I love the lines:
"You broke the promise,
You broke the vow."
and
"And so tonight
Is when I cry."
Well done, thanks for entering and good luck.
