Love Poem: Honest Words

Honest Words

For all those sins & reckless lies. For all the time and tears and sacrifice
And all his honest words too late, too shallow now to vindicate 
A futile bid at any rate 
And far too little to suffice

She saw the time that passed her by,
Too weak to look within and wonder why
Had torn apart and wrought to dust
The little things which earned his trust. 
That bruised their lips and stirred her lust and left him burning in reply 

But now it seems just far too real
And strange there isn't more beneath to feel
A numbness spreads and quells his heart, together seems now so apart
The ending once again, the start
The ever spinning wheel.
