Poison Laced Promises

Perfect promises flowing,

I swallow your alluring words

And regurgitate.

From this I infer

That you pour your perfect promises

And lace them with poison.

You put dreams in my head

And, yet, leave my heart broken.

So do not pour more promises

At my rebuff.

Your actions speak volumes.

Your words are not enough.
