Since I am being a bit sore about Vday. Here is a really painful poem from my private collection. I wrote it circa 2001/2002

Broken Promises

You promised you’ll never,
Hurt me,
But you plunged,
The sword of sorrow,
Into my heart.

You promised you’ll never,
Make me cry,
Then why am I,
Drowning in the flood,
Of my own tears.

You promised you’ll never,
Leave me,
But I heard the door slam,
As I stared,
Into emptiness,
Feelings we once shared.
