"illusive Heart"

"Illusive Heart" 

I feel lonely, and yet you are here.
You hold me close; but, your heart isn't sincere.

You utter bittersweet promises that all will come true.
My heart doesn't believe anything; that is said, from you.

Your just fooling yourself if you think I wouldn't know.
All the covered up lies, that you have did; or ever told.

I came to you that night and stated we were through.
Leaving begging promises, my feelings; you left askew.

Munipulator of words you try another hand..
What part of "we're through" do you not understand?

I ultimately packed my heart and walked out forever.
Finally feeling free, as much as I could endeavor.
