"The Only Thing"

Disappointment...

The bitter sting of let down

Thoughts led astray

Actions not taken

Conviction refused

Promises broken before they are even made

Sometimes some things are simple choices

There is a desperate need for yes and no

Black and white

It saves the heartache and confusion

And can stop a lot of the anger

Tears can remain brave

And not have to fall...

Because even the slightest promise of hope can be seen a betrayal

So do not leave bread crumbs behind you for me to follow

Knowing I fully and completely will

We are human beings

With a heart...

Soul...

Feelings and emotions...

None of which are games or toys to be played with

I'm this moment

I am found

With a decision to be made

To give up...

Surrender...

Or walk away...

Because when I attempt to add up the meaning of us...

The sum of nothing is the only thing made clear.
