Your Sweet Tongue









When the smoke clears

Will you be there for me

You say you’re not gonna leave.

What part of me is it that doesn’t believe

The words as they roll

Off of your sweet tongue

What part of me resents you

For making a decision I go through alone



You say it will make us stronger

But that’s a promise I’m not buying

Deep inside I know you’ll go

It breaks my heart to know

You’re lying.



You say you feel guilty

For what I must carry

I protest

That you carry part of it too.

Its this kind of

One sided attitude

That makes me question

My trust in you.



This thing in my belly

We both put it there.

And it scares me to think

That you don’t even care.
