Empty Hearts
Precious promises we discarded
so slowly one at a time
until our hearts were empty
a smile we couldn't find
Those warm moments
meant to always cherish
gradually disappeared
so subtle did they perish
Finally no longer could we pretend
as we sadly looked around
our love had vanished
quietly left without a sound
