But You Promised

By FallinTears

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You promised you would come see me today And here I am I waiting I’ve got on my nice new clothes My make up’s done My hair brushed Waiting for you to call me You promised you would come see me today Because you couldn’t yesterday Or eight weeks before that And I believed you It might not be your fault But you promised Now I’m just writing to ease the pain To be stabbed I need my Cheri’… but she’s not here She’s out… Where I’d like to be You promised you would come see me today And here I am waiting My legs are falling asleep And my eyes burn with fire The minutes tick away… And now I don’t know what to do You promised me You liar You promisedI'm being selfish... let me alone. I'll get over it eventually. Written December 15th, 2001 © on Dec 15 2001 11:51 AM PST   18 • 0 • 1
