A Beautiful Disaster

"I'll be there for you
On each step of the way,
I'll be strong for you
If you stay strong for me,
You mean the world to me"...

You've broken the promise,
And I... I forgive you.
But only I'd never tell,
So badly convincing myself
That I don't.
You've buried the world
You created for me
Next to my hope.
You've almost killed
My loving soul.
Almost...
Though you tried your best
You can't have injured me deeper;
You've left me a beautiful mess.

A heart, never whole,
Tears, alcohol,
Love songs,
All without an end.
I still try to pretend
I'm all right;
After one more sleepless night
Comes a new day.

New roads, new eyes,
Keys to new lives,
All ending up with new lies -
You're still recalled in my heart.
I try to find...You...
In a look of each stranger,
In every song...
You're only in other's hearts...
And in mine...
But you don't even remember me...
Who am I?
Not a missed memory,
Not a foe, not a friend.
Now I'm nothing to you.
Why? I don't understand...

It hurts when you can't burn the memory or the love away. Broken promises and broken hearts sting to the core. I hope relief comes soon.

Well said.
