Broken Promises, Broken Heart

 I remember a time
not too long ago
you said you'd love me forever
you promised eternity

but then why now are you gone?
so quickly from my life you left
feeling nothing left
in your heart for me

you promised to always hold my heart
and never let yours leave mine
said you would love for always and forever
with all your heart and soul

it seems only yesterday we were happy


laughing
holding
kissing
loving

telling each other how we never wanted those moments to end
we wanted to stop time
because nothing else mattered
but our love

i loved you so much
i guess I loved too hard
I must have done something
to deserve this eternal pain

you left my side so easily,
so quickly moved along
saying you felt nothing
and that we were not right anymore

how could you promise me forever and for always
only days before this happened
talked of pleasures yet to come
and then BAM this happened

and here I lay
broken
beaten and bleeding
all our love onto the floor

broken heart.
broken promises
broken love,
that i feel will never mend.

gone

is it really over?
is this just a dream?
i want to wake up
but i can't.

i still love you.
in my dreams we're still together
but in the morning i realize,

you're gone.

starlight

always close.
love forever.
now far apart.

all i feel is cold.
all i want is love.
but its distant,

like the stars.
i lay down and stare at it,
wishing upon its fading light.

Night Flowers

The sky cries tonight
for reasons unknown.
Her tears fall from the heavens 
flowers gladly drinking them in. 

As I walk in the garden
I see her sadness reborn
Into plush green life,
in the darkness of night. 

My hair soaks in her aroma
as it dangles around me
entangling me in her scent
bringing her closer to my heart. 

The flowers of night drink her in.
My heart wilts under her emotion,
as I feel her tears on my own cheek. 
I feel her sadness that the flowers eat.
