Vows

Vows

All anyone can ask

Is to give you all can,

To try not lie,

And to love with all your heart and soul.

To vow to be faithful

Is a large part of what is wrong with this world

We expect too much

Then are upset when it falls apart

Just don’t flaunt them in front of me.

Don’t get trapped.

Be careful.

I don’t want a fixer up model.

Anyone who goes into a relationship

Intending to change someone

Ends up

With disappointments and heartaches

The only person you can count on changing

Is you.

So go into love with your eyes open,

And never end up

With your heart in pieces on the floor.

Lies

Lies

Do promises made at midnight

Mean nothing in the light of day?

Did you not swear by look and by deed?

I believed you when you said

You would be faithful

Was it all lies?

The moonlight was so beautiful

It cast a spell over us

Made me a romantic

Took me for a fool

I think we need to take time

To reassess this relationship

Maybe we were never meant to be
