A Bleeding Heart

Your promises cut like shards of 
glass
And memories remain like stains 
That show for everyone to see 
like gloss
And hopes of another love keep 
me sane
As I've tripped on the same trap 
yet again

Prepared to be a fool of love I 
kneeled
As I traded my pride for love
A fabricated fantasy which I held
But this was a pickled I couldn’t 
solve 
For you had given my love to 
another

Now my sorrows weigh heavy 
As bitterness wounds me softly
And my empty heart is left to 
bleed
For these memories I hold deed
Cave in resentment that kills.

My heart still bleeds 
For I forget not
