I am seduced by a tongue so sweet,
the liquid gold
so bright a future it foretold.
It didn't tell of hardship and struggle,
of love grown cold.
As I open my eyes and realise,
I was told lies
to compensate
for the hold on me that I almost hate.
With it's grip so strong,
I didn't know it was wrong.
I believed and held fast,
knew it should last.
No getaway,
you have to stay
and care, though no more for me
what will I be?
I can't leave, I have to remain
to stay and be,
for this lifetime; in pain.
A heartfelt write, but beautifully written....
ReplyDeleteThat is so sad, I really just came here looking for a glass hart I could engrave with a message for my future wife as a gift. Trust me when I say I know how much this hurts, but after years of despising woman I have once again convinced myself that a true love just for me must be out there somewhere and it would be a terrible crime to give up on her whoever she might be. If not for my dreams of her I would not be writing this, I would be dead by my own hand long ago. So here is to love, hope and faith in all that is beautiful and that includes you.
