The Problem is
The way a heart drowns
A thought, A tear
A boulder with chains
A break, A crack
The piece that won't break away
A glance, A choke
Words left unspoken
A lie, A sin
On the brink of depression
A loss, A joke
Love thats laughed at
A boy, A girl
Promises unheld
A beginning, An end
To the forever she was promised.

I went through a tough time with an ex-boyfriend. He told me he loved me and we would always be together. When he cheated on me, this was my release.
