Upon a Time

Once upon a time i knew what it was to love someone so deep i couldn't see the world around me. Once upon a time i was afraid. Afraid of losing you, Afraid of keeping you too. Once upon a time you promised me it was always me. Now you won't say a word. Once upon a time i felt safe, and comforted. It was than that i felt alive when i was near you. Now i'm always alone. Once upon a time, a time so long gone away you told me you loved me, and now you throw me away. Once upon a time you used me all up, wound me in frustration and broke my heart. I remember when it was forever, now we;re just growing old together. one time long ago i made you a promise, a promise i etched in gold and when you need me i'll be here, i am a woman of my word and i swear, i'll just sit and look at you when your lonely, and scared.
