Poetry In Motion
I filed away the hurt and tears
I filed away the pain
I filed away the destruction left
There was nothing there to gain
I wanted to believe in you
And all the promises made
Things that you’re not capable of
A heart never truly displayed
I guess that I’m to blame
For giving you more chances
Past history showed a pattern
Should have studied, not have glanced
Knowing you is not a loss
Some sweet memories remain
You were poetry in motion
And that’s what I retain
Back to where I started
But smarter going forth
Separate the mind from heart
For all that this is worth
