I Do But I Won’t

diamondpoet on Oct 9, 2009

So Many of us look for that happily ever after, but instead we get of God please get me out I am suffocating.

Till death do us part.

I have been impregnated with loves lies.

This golden band.

Placed on the second finger of my left hand.

These vows we said together with intensity.

I was so sure you were right for me.

But now I see the image of your face.

Infidelity all over the place.

I want back the happiness I once had.

My life filled with blackness.

I have become immune to you deceitful tactics.

In desperation for a solution.

Of course another paper mache disillusion.

No more lies from these lips about the cream of my crop.

Just the stream of endless tear drops.

This so wrong.

So instead of I do, I must say so long.

OMG! You nailed it. So many times we are in love with the idea of being in love, and then the illusion is shattered and reality sets in. Well said!

A sad subject. Love is not a fairytale it requires effort and compromise and sometimes it does not have a happy ending.

I don’t care much for this subject but the words you chose and the way you used them show you have exceptional talent.
