MY CUP OVERFLOW
I cried again.
You promised to be better
You came again
And swallowed your promises
You left again.
Sun went down
All for gain?
With a lot of broken promises
Try try again?
No never again.
There’s no blame.
Same of the same.
For I see you're not even happy
Where you choose
So I will get back up
Try it again
With another name.
Ignite a new flame
Open my heart
***** out again
Not a cake
Flame of soul
Someone’s trouble cold
There it goes
Another’s mended soul.
Broken for show
Of a fool I think I am
Thinking they are in control
Not fully grown
Invisible heart necklace
Most painful part
To many hearts
You’ll remember one
One that laughed
Into your eyes.
But they looked back
And shattered it
The soul slithered
Away to hide
No more playing
Had it’s fill
Maybe it’s time
I finally grow
Then you’ll know
Oh you'll know
Who laughed last
The best game
Who got played
And could’ve lasted
But now alone?
They are there
But you're alone
Am I sorry?
Well of course
But lessons are
they surely are
Who can glow
Who is true?
Well it is
I did implore
To save you
To protect you
I cry not
But you’re unsure
Made you name
Without your consent
I am sorry
There’s no try again.
I now know
All I got
Was illusion
Was just a dream
Trying to convince myself
But I have gotten it right now
I only have me.
My heart will go on
