Promised Love Date: Sunday, 1st May 2005 @ 08:16:47 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: Essentially9 Promised Love The blood trickles down The white flower petals To encrimson the ground. I exist only as a memory That's easily forgotten, And that's all I'll ever be. Life's redundant and doesn't last, And even death is worth living for With happiness only in the past. You say I'll always be here for you, And I know that's a lie you promise, Because it's never before been true. The only truth is that everything That brings me down is always Going to be with me for eternity, And the flower blooms red With the broken promise Cutting the petals to shreds With truth as serrated as the lie.
