Candy Coated Wishes








Promises Given--
Candy Coated,
I Wish-I Dream.
May I Be A Fool?
I Ask With My Dainty Hopes.

What A Lie,
Stricken-
Other Know Not My Ache-
Nor Do You.
It Will Pass They Say...

Then Why Am I Left Alone,
In The End?

Once My Friend,
Then Turned Sour.
I Should Have Listened-
To Your Self-Descriptiveness,
Violated-
Welcomed.

Care No More.
More Dead Than Alive...
What Joy Is This?
