Excuse

someone told my friend that they'd be together forever...she believed it...so here's just a poem to show that a lot of people don't mean that...

Your breath tickles my cheek,

As you whisper to me,

All of your hopes and dreams,

Your arms fold around me,

Telling me to never fear,

My knight is here,

Guarding me,

Through all dangers,

Your lips graze my cheek,

Comforting me by your touch,

Your hands creep up my shirt,

And even though I love it,

I know it's wrong,

So I push you away,

Then my door creaks open,

As light enters the room,

It's mom checking on us,

Making sure we're good,

But if she could hear out thoughts,

She'd punish us for sure,

Then darkness encloses us,

And the next thing I know,

You're headed out the door,

Leaving me,

All alone,

By myself,

As the room grows cold,

Your promise taunting me,

In my head,

'I'll love you forever,',

Is what you said,

But forever's an awful long time,

I should've known,

Should've guessed,

That I'd never have to say 'yes',

I should've known,

Should've guessed,

I never was the best,

Now you showed me the truth,

Of forever,

It's not as long as I thought,

But you've helped me,

In so many ways,

Helped me see through the lie,

Of forever,

It's not really that long,

Just another excuse for,

Someone's broken heart.

Author's Note

the knight part is super cheesy, and i'm srry my writing has been suckish lately, but it's been about what i've noticed as i go through school...nothing exciting has happened to me lately...so please tell me what you think should be changed...

i love this poem! i like the idea u based it around, how when someone says "forever" it doesnt mean forever. i can totally relate, as you probably already know lol

It's decent :)
I love things cheeky xD

But the only part I don't get is the last,
"Just another excuse for someone's broken heart." Why is it?

[Broken.]

Nothing should be changed! Lol. I love this.
It reminds me soo much of my past relasionship in a good way, it seems as though forever is never long enough and when someone says that then they usually don't mean it unfortunately. Nonetheless, beautiful poem I look forward to reading more like this (:
