[hometext] => A collaboration of two souls, each tired of the bitter aftertaste left behind by broken promises.
[bodytext] => Words are given and gifts are sworn Until we die, and from the moment we're born Pledges are made and fingers crossed Dreams and desires are grasped, then lost Pain is delivered to remind us we're alive Though sometimes doesn't care if we survive Promises shattered to reveal the harsh reality Of our so often forgotten human morality Buried in lies until we are dust To leave this world without knowing trust You raise our hopes and make us believe Then with a dagger, our hearts you cleave Killed by the dagger of ataxia and treason By a ludicrous act taken without reason On betrayal's river against volition we sailed Merely because you turned and failed So there we lay, disillusioned in a garnet sea The wound you left bleeds sincerity Our hearts and tears, they never mattered Another will, another vow, unremembered and shattered When you glance back once remember not to For we are back for vengeance, our hearts made new Fettered no more, away from our harness We seek you out to remind you of your broken promise So the walls were torn asunder, ten times rebuilt now cast in steel The play rewritten once again, the middle of fortune's wheel [comments] => 3 [counter] => 191 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Disillusioned_Gemini [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
