This Song is About Love;

Finally, Inspiration has struck again.
My first poem in months. Hopefully I haven't lost my touch.

This Song is About Love;

Don’t offer those words
Empty promises you’ll never fulfill
I believe you
I believe that you want to
I know that you never
Will.

Can’t you hear me?
Let me scream your name.
As loud as it fucking takes.
While my unwilling heart
Breaks.

I don’t want the lies
I can’t compromise
I won’t be hypnotized
In a trance from your beautiful
Empty

Eyes. So serene, now.
Yet, I know there is fire
To be seen.
When I was willing
You’re eyes were filling
With emotion? NO.
Need.

Focus on this, now.
Can you tell me, how,
You brushed it away?
Or do your feelings stay?
No.
What didn’t exist
Certainly doesn’t remain.

So, these eloquent words
Are all in vain.
And I am empty
Except for the pain.
