Empty Promises

 
Words from your mouth fall upon hopeful ears,
Succumbing to passion and covering fears.
Defying reality in conflict with tears,
that wash away time through a stream leading into an ocean of years.
A future an illusion made up of lustful spheres,
singing a song that no one will hear.
Envisions of heavens of angels and piers,
many can speak of but no ones been near.
Promises told in silence fall on death ears...
Give me your hell if that's what is here,
Let my five senses define what is real.
