Brief Assurances

Crushed lungs

Heavy heart

By every word 

Pulled apart


Hurting

Quietly

Dying

Silently


Sorry

Guilty

Feel

Filthy


It's okay

In the past

Brief assurances 

Never last


What was said

Was said

What was done

Was done


Shut the curtains

Lock the door

Don't want to think 

Anymore


About the guilt

About the pain

Oh tearful eyes

Don't you dare rain


The ocean of guilt 

Is terribly vast

And brief assurances

Never last
