Promises

There we stood
You and I
Face to face

Eyes locked tightly
Lips moving slowly
Promises both made

Promises both broken
As soon as made
Hearts torn from chests

Flesh torn and parted
Left alone bleeding
Whispers fade away

Heart broken, shattered
One victor above all
Tears fall to cloth

Final words spoken
Footsteps quicken
Softly fading forever

Never to return
