The Fake

The Fake
How can someone be so false
And make you fall so deep
You think about them day and night
And even in your sleep. 
Taking you in their arms 
Whispering sweet breath upon your hair
Looking softly in your eyes
Finding yourself comfortably lost in their
Touching you so you tremble
Passion heightened, Kisses like no other 
Caressing your inner soul
Becoming that trusted lover
Planning a fated future
Of happiness and then
Ripping it straight from under you
As nothing had ever began
Now my heart lays here in pieces
You treated it like trash
With many broken promises
Now dust to dust, ash to ash

Some people want to fall in love, some people want to fall in lust. The people who lie about which it is are horrible though. This is a powerful read Allie. Thumbs up. Matt <3
