He spoke to me
Whispered words of love that touched my soul
Promises of love that made me whole
He spoke to me
And I believed
I spoke to him
Saying how my pulse begins to race The ache of longing etched upon my face
I spoke to him
And he believed
Or so he said
Assurances he spoke trapped in my head
And he led me swiftly to the bed
Later we slept
I woke to find he'd left me there alone
Hollow words to haunt the journey home
I wept
Trembling with a vacuous inner need
I cried for all the lies
That I believed
