Your Vow?

 

This is not what I signed up for

It's not what I thought we'd be

You live your life inside our home

While that piece of furniture is me

Supposed to be my happy ending

Quickly turned to another hell

Tears ever streaming down my face

You don't look at me, you can't tell

My side of the bed grew lonely

So I found myself another space

Not once did you even ask me why

Now I know it never was my place

I loved you more than you'll know

But I was only a scam for you

This hidden agenda has broke us

My heart already knows what to do

Sanity

 

Invading the caverns of my brain

Devouring matter considered sane

Hinge of reality now rusted not gold

Fibers worn thin have broken this mold

Realms that echo still claw at me

Existance, survival, thus all tragedy

Feet dragging to pursue the way

Cower amongst society as prey

Vipers await their perfect chance

Life and death intertwined to dance

Pitted, hollow, eventually caved

Once beautiful, now labeled depraved

Bettie

 

I finally found a friend

Who loves unconditional too

She's shown her true colors

Each is a beautiful hue

 

We have much in common

And to each other we are real

We know when prayer is needed

As kindred spirits we feel

 

God found us for each other

Now she dwells within my heart

And by the grace of God

We shall never be apart
