Broken Promises

You were ten and I was one

You saw me as your own

You taught me how to laugh 

Loved me though I was half 

You fed me and starved 

In my heart love you carved

Taught me how to ride a bike

And pretty my hair girl like

Time passed seasons changed

My love for you remained unchanged

You still let me win every fight

You still call me your light 

One day I saw the love change 

Every word you spoke felt strange 

I saw you becoming a stranger

Together you and the strange her

You didn't ease my pain

I pleaded with you in vain

I cried my heart out for you 

And what did you do

You left me in the dark alone

Why did you wish me gone

You started building a wall

You didn't care I was naive and small

You broke every promise with a lie

O brother why did you let me die
