With a Broken Smile

by Caroline
(Tennessee, United States)

You hugged me, I hugged back, at that moment love attacked.
You held my hand, I held yours, you made me feel so secure.
You leaned in, I kissed your lips, your hands sliding down onto my hips.
You lay beside me, me beside you, at the moment, love felt true.
You said you loved me, I said I loved you too, why do we say things that are not true?
With a broken smile, I won't ask why. I'll take my life. I'll say goodbye.
