A broken promise

She feels the itch form on her wrist
like due drops dripping from the mist
she felt her heart ache in her chest
when he told her its for the best.
tears are falling from her face
like rain clouds coming and going to waste.
shes sitting in bed with a blade in hand
a habit returned on demand.
she used the blade for the better good
though she promised him she never would
now shes lying helpless in bed
surrounded by a puddle of red
she didn't want it to end this way
like leaves falling on an Autumn day.
she didn't think they'd ever know
she broke their promise by letting go
