You promise, you promise
things will change.
You promise, you promise,
you promise you're sorry.
You promise, you promise
It'll be okay,
but I don't want to hear
a promise today.
"I love you, I love you,"
you say each day,
with that look in your eyes
that blows me away.
I succomb again, once more
and swear that things
are different than before.
We again make love,
that exciting demon in your eye
that I try to fight,
but the war is lost.
I succomb again
and feel safe once more
but promises, I know
are meant to be broken.

A very powerful write. I am sorry though because I have to remove this due to the rhyming. I wanted non-rhyming. However, I found this to be very deep. Well done.

A very powerful write if looked at as a painting of the soul, One can see the hurt the love and then the breath of silence captured in the essence, of innocnce that you brought to this page, awsome write three claps
