People say the world forever, <br />But it never comes true, <br />It’s a lie in the making, <br />The subordinate word to hold onto you, <br /> <br />People say the word promise, <br />To only be used in vain, <br />Sworn up and down to never be broken, <br />Yet you are left to swallow the pain, <br /> <br />People say the word believe, <br />It makes you feel secure, <br />But down the road you see you’re wrong, <br />Believing something that wasn’t sure, <br /> <br />People say the word hurt, <br />To leave you guilt stricken on the floor, <br />Tossed around to make you suffer, <br />Only to keep pounding at your own door, <br /> <br />People say the word forgive, <br />You never know if they mean it, <br />It leaves you thinking; believing a joke, <br />What you know in reality it’s bullshit, <br /> <br />People say the word love, <br />The strongest word anyone could say, <br />A word that makes your life feel complete, <br />Be you TELL ME what to do when all of this is taken away!<br /><br />Joshua Hillard<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/people-say-8/
