THE ONE

Words of romance used to flow through fingers of a naive gal
like a stream after a heavy rain
now the only words she can think of are full of hate and pain

What brought this unexpected change
the gal who used to see things in vivid colors
now views everything as dull and lifeless

Blame the one promised heaven but brought hell
Blame the one who promised smiles but brought tears
blame the one who promised to always care
but now forever gone no longer there

all that is left of the gal
is an empty shell with a mask of smiles for a face
trapped forever with baggage of shattered dreams

If u are asking urself who is that poor gal
who couldn't be free
Look no further
cause the gal I'm writing about is ME
