Broken Promises

I want to write you a love note for the entire universe to see But the love I had for you is gone It came out of me like a river of blood Yesterday I saw forever in your eyes Today all I see is broken promises If I stay with you I will lose myself I will be no more, I will surely die Why try to hold on to the memory of yesterday This relationship is dead and it's just a mirage It would take a miracle to resurrect this sham Yesterday I believed in us and miracles Today I don't believe in anything at all Because I found that it's a waste of time I stare at this blank piece of paper but the ink that have is blood Alexis Y. 9-25-17
