You promised me forever

by Steffini   Feb 7, 2008


Blood dripping down my arm once again
(baby its been so long)
Im lying on this cold hard floor
And in the midst of all our fighting
Your still the one I reach for
Please pay no attention to the cuts
They say the words that I keep condemned
Belonging to this unbearable love for you
Dont move my love, you're heart's surrounded
(and remember, you promised me forever)
Im waiting to forget, forget everything that has happened
But something is telling me its never going to go that way
These scars are just paintings, here to remind me of all that has hurt me
(And you, my love, your portrait outdoes them all)
But Im not going to give up, no baby not again
Looking in your eyes, I cant help but lose my breath
This chance I took, just to let you in for a second time
For the first time in my life, Im scared to death
All this time spent loving only you
I Can't believe I walked out the door
and now the visions of you and her are burnt in my mind
If I wouldnt have left you here alone, we wouldnt be going through this
(Because you promised me forever)
Waiting for you with open arms
How could I ever leave you
Always needed you here with me
your the one I will continue to love, forever
(Baby remember what you promised me)
Im sick and tired of drowning in my own tears
Lets just stay here tonight, and for the rest of our lives
Please just forget her, forget that I left
(Because we promised each other forever)

    Excellent job, it looks like you spent a lot of time on this poem but it's worth it as it's an enjoyable read.
    Nice choice of wording to...this line is very vivid-
    These scars are just paintings
