A lot of people have promised me a lot of things throughout this lifetime. I hold the invoices all marked "paid in full" but the shipments have yet to arrive. To those who promised to never leave me: where are you now that I am alone and feeling this emptiness grow with every breath I take with out you by my side? To those who promised to love me forever: where are you now that loves light leaves me cold? To those who said they could not live without me: how are you now still living when we parted ways so many years ago? To those who told me pretty lies so I could hold my head high and believe in us: where are you now that all of those illusions can no longer comfort me? To those who promised me security: where are you now that I am drowning in a sea of my own tears? To those who promised to light my way: where are you now that my candle has burnt out and my matches have been stolen? To those of whom I used shamelessly: where are you now to distract me from the pain that those memories bring? To those who promised to lift my burdens: where are you now that the weight of the world is crashing around me? To those who held me tight: where are you now that I can only dimly remember the warmth that human contact promises? To those who said they believed in me: where are you now that I have lost all hope and faith? To those who promised me the world: where are you now that mine has fallen apart? To those who promised to make all of my dreams come true: where are you now that my only company is nightmares and fragments of those dreams that used to comfort me? To those who promised to grant my every wish: where are you now that all hope has died within my soul? To those who told that everything would be alright: where are you now that Im spiraling out of control? To those who promised to never let me fall: where are you now as I lay here shattered and broken? To those who promised that I would never feel pain again: where are you now that I am bruised battered and sore? Where are you now? Will you ever deliver any promises that you ever made to me? I fear it is too late, Ive fallen from grace, fallen from the human race. Thank you for destroying me.
