Promises.

I hear your voice in my head
Making impossible promises
true love,
dreams.
Pie in the sky.

Blind eye turns to reality.

I see your face in my mind
expectant
As you wait for never to arrive.

You pin your hopes
on my promises.

I am telling you lies.
Me, the deceiver.

My promises are hollow, and
I shield you
from this reality.

Say thank you.
