I swear on my grave
That this will be the last time
I write a poem about you
I swear that this
Will be my final release
Me letting your memory go
Let some other girl spend nights thinking about you
I swear to myself
That this stream on consciousness
Placed on paper will be the last time
I waste words on you
I swear to you that this
Is the end of my feelings
That that pang of sadness
That twist of the knife will go away
I swear to Gods that I don't believe in
That I will use this as an opportunity
To learn to love myself and not
Some boy who will give it all away
I swear to everyone that
I won't look through the poetry
I wrote about you, the words you stole from me
The time I wasted, stringing words together about your smile
I can swear all I like
But here I am, crying at 10:07
Writing yet another poem about you
I swear that I'm a liar
