Broken Promises

promises don`t mean
that much no more
they just make
my heart so sore
had them broken
many a time
got so use to
this type of crime
don`t expect any thing
from you now
and certainly
will not kowtow
for you have stripped me
of emotions
what divides us
are many oceans
then I will carry on
along my way
so I can strive
to life another day
for I`ll not be
dragged through the dirt
as broken promises
really do hurt
