I dare to look into your eyes and my heart is filled with a bittersweet surprise. Almost at what I feel - I'm beginning to contemplate if this is real. You say you love me and that you care, and act as if you'll always be there. But if any of this isn't true - don't you dare speak those words - I love you. Because I've been hurt by you before and all the love suicide has burned me to the core. My soul has hidden itself deep - because the promise of your love is beginning to seep Out of my heart and out of my mind, all of this damn naivete has made me blind. I can't deal with broken promises, the empty, soul-less words that follow. Sometimes just hearing your voice makes my heart cringe and I go hollow. You just come back and rip apart my shelter I have finally found, but we are lovers and to you I am bound. So if you speak those words and you see a tear slowly creep from my eye. Just know that sometimes the things we believe are all cruel yet unintentional lies. And don't reach out with your hand and gently wipe my cheek Because i might make myself forever yours with the blind words that I faintly speak.
Reason for writing:
I was being hurt by how much I loved this person.
