Promise

Apologies, sorrow, sorry I'm not the ideal you see of me

Well I’ve done it again
Destroyed the ones I loved
In the way only those you love so deeply can do
I’ve stepped on hearts Steeped in hurt
Only making everything worse

 

I am not a goddess
By any means possible
I am only human
And that is my ultimate downfall

 

Floating through Is hard to do
I collide with every obstacle
Demolishing my bridges as they are built
I have nothing left to burn
But pictures of you
I don’t know how much good that can do

 

But I am not a goddess
Not by any means
I am only human
This is my ultimate downfall

 

Mistakes made run in litters
I will make no runts
Pick of the chick, that’s me
As only I can be

 

Only time will tell, they say
Time will always heal, as well
I trudge through Day by day
Playing the same songs over
But I don’t believe in Hell

 

I am not your goddess
Not by any means
I am only human
As cliché as it seems

 

Verily I am human
In every shape and form
I can’t be your goddess
My soul feels just too worn

 

Golden goddess only
In those dreams of yours
I am only human
This, I fear my curse

 

I will only make things worse
I am neither w***e nor goddess
Though you may wish me so
Wishful thinking wrote many novels
With dodging to and fro
Yes I am only human
This ever makes things worse
I am not your goddess

Which only makes this worse
I will only make this worse
I only make things worse
And this is my best curse

Nice work,
I love the third verse 'Floating through is hard to do, I collide with every obstacle'
and the 'burning bridges', Great stuff
Parts of this piece can be a bit repetitive and redundant
The ending makes me sad, making everything worse
after all you are a poet and you can fill an empty page with words
Great read,
