Jail Talk

Sassy Lou

Years you want, not months or days -

Then you came home & threw it all away.

Praying for a good woman -

God sent me you

A good one indeed, this is true

I'm sorry, I will get better, won't happen again -

Same cycles & patterns, will it ever end?

Did you wrong & hurt you many times -

You deserve better -

I'll prove it to you, it's not just a line

Away you were for eight straight -

Promising the world to me -

When not face to face

Empty promises & a broken heart -

Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde were one in the same, too!

Here we go again -

With all this fancy talk -

I'm not falling for all this again

No proven change, I'll walk

This is nothing but jail talk.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Empty words and promises over and over again. Can't trust a word that escapes the lips any longer. Don't want to give up, I love this person to much. Yet, prove to me what you say is what you want. Can't take the hurt & pain no more.
