Broken Like Your Promises
Folder:
My Broken Heart I feel like I was duped,
tricked into saying my vows
when you haven't kept yours.
I've been checked out for months
trying to find a way out that
doesn't result in being alone again.
It's like you don't care I'm unhappy
as I cry myself to sleep most nights
wishing things were different.
I feel crushed in every way,
destroyed by your apathy
and broken like your promises.
