broken promises


This is just something I wrote, feeling a lil down and sitting by the fire place...

(Also, not true, before you remark)


I broke every promise to you,

callously so.

There was no intent to place harm on your senses, still I provided with no less than false hope;

subsequent miscarriages of the heart.

I bruised your soul quite effortlessly within my strong grip

You could expect no less could you?

*

You believe yourself to be the the best...

So far from the truth was this.

Quietly, I learned your ways...How you underestimated my capabilities.

With clearity and the truth of it, I moved on.

*

My words hold no value.

Truth? I could've easily loved you. To do so however, I'd have to own the better part of valor.

Still do you deny the lust burning between us?

You'd have me believe that I am indistinguishable amongst men.

We know better than this, don't we?

I'm the man that you reach for in the night...I bring you both pleasure and pain. I provide you with fulfillment all the while with holding emotion.

*

I've tears spent. Questioned your motives a million times over.

Burdened with the sorrow I accutely felt the distance placed between us.

But I grew stronger. I silently rallied against the broken promises spoken in the dark. Your touch left me feeling empty...No, you'd never suffice.

Your inaction never went unnoticed. I wasn't left with want.

Neglect, inconsistancy brought me to illumination.

*

I'm the drug that you seemingly cannot resist, relinquish.

Darlin' I understand that you desire so much more...

You don't hear my omissions, you turn a deaf ear to words never spoken...

*

When I discovered him, thoughts of you rapidly escaped me...dissipating...

You've been left behind as a lesson learned, so hold no concern for me.

Tell your lies to another, for you will be lied to, assuredly.

You were a grand teacher, I the consumate student.

True lust burst you forth into my world, but it is love which displaces you now.

*

I wish you'd wise up, leave me for the better that awaits you.

I'm not going to change.

Truth? Change does exsist beyond what we coveted...here

You have to care enough to realize how little I care.

Til then, I'll look into your precious eyes and tell my lies.

I'll break every promise spoken to you.

*

Tonight was the last.

I cast a smile in your direction, knowing full well that I'm worth far more than your broken promises.

I loved you, but no longer.

I promised that I would never hurt you, perhaps that is the reason I neglected to speak of my love for him..."the other"

*

I left before the light of morning broke through the windows' pane, realizing that it was an eventuality that I'd return.

Like a child to a father...she'd forgive...

*

I waited for his departure.

Showered. Cleansing myself, ridding my body of his empty touch, leaving the memory of him far, far behind.

As father to child, my love awaited my arrival.

I forgave my lover, subsequentlty forgetting him altogether.

Love seemingly over shadows broken promises...

*


Well that was just a thought, hope you enjoyed the lil note a jotted down.

I'm thinking that I'll place this in "Logan Falling" let me know what you think!


From my hand to yours,
