Sea of Tears
Feelings, I thought genuine,
were a concoction of lies.
And the memories we've shared
often bring tears to my eyes.
You easily deceived me;
allowing my hopes to climb.
Yet, love slipped through my fingers
like the shifting sands of time.
Your betrayal converted
my elation into pain.
For your empty promises
let me down, yet once again.
Your excuses weighed heavy,
like a stone lodged in my heart.
Yet, I fell for every word;
believing we'd never part.
In a sea of tears, dreams drown
in the depths of my sorrow.
And wishes are abandoned
to the whims of tomorrow.
