poem_039_He_Promised
He said that he cared.
He said he’d never leave me.
It’s been the best year I’ve endured.
Forever together he always assured.
He continuously kept me protected.
With all his attention, I never felt neglected.
Then in his heroic act of love he took the shot for me.
I held him and the wound close screaming like a banshee,
For I knew that he was rapidly reaching his demise.
So I told him I loved him and sadly cried my goodbyes.
I thought he cared
I thought he’d never leave me
And then he died…
Therefore he lied…
