Your tease is still the same
a melody familiar even now
comfort I thought
to keep me at bay
so together we could stay
smiles turned to sadness
laughter turned to pain
your words speak ill truths
of times
when things were not the same
forgotten memories
written words of promises
never fulfilled
never to do
your kiss is like venom to me now
as I back out without saying a word
disgrace I felt, but now it's time
and yet it wasn't enough
not for you, not for me
