You question why I don't trust
For I've been caught in games of lust,
You wondered why I did not believe
I've traveled this road can't you see?
Yet I began to open my heavy heart
Only in time to have you rip it apart,
Deceived by my own watchful eye
Now left again to simply wonder why.
You couldn't live without me you would say
But who now turns their back the other way,
Promising that soon we would unite
Yet my dwindling soul suffers another bite.
So much in love with me you confess
And it was your skin I wished to caress,
Swore to keep my heart somewhere safe
Now ripped from my chest before hell's gate.
Angelic you were those pictures you sent
Now an illusion of my fantasy warped and bent,
Magical eyes and a mezmorizing smile
Things I hadn't appreciated in quite a while.
Just another lie in an endless game
The winnder drives the other insane,
Thief a soul and destroy a passion
In this old style mystical fashion.
Love me hard and then leave it dead
Taken moments from this empty bed,
Release the blood slow from my veins
Where false love and terror to trust reign.
Share your sweat then leave it cold
A demented mind could be so bold,
Let me feel your breath as mine subsides
As your demonic promises slip away and hide.
Leave this empty shell of me to die
My soul is gone away it flies,
Trust betrayed again I find so true
My biggest mistake yet loving you.

ahhh... but don't we wish that we would only love those who would love us in return? A sad, but well-told tale of despair and pain. I felt it.

Oh Jeremy this is sooo sad

And I can see so many relatable feelings

But you wrote it very well

Take care!

Jeremy,
I know exactly how you feel... and it breaks my heart.
