A hard blow
Straight to the chest
Piercing thru the skin
Thru the heart
Just words
That's all they were
With an added
"I promise"
So what's the difference?
What about it
Gives the other words
More meaning?
Is it just me?
Am I held at fault
Because I trusted?
Because I wanted to love
And be loved?
Wanted to feel
Have something
No, Someone
To hold onto
While I felt myself slip
Into nothing
But the promises
Broken little shards of glass
Just like the mirror
From beneath my fist
They were just words
No meaning held within
They let me hold on
Only for a short time
before they shoved me beneath .......
