I used to believe you when you said
that those long walks on the beach
where romantic and loverly,
but, now I know better and my
vision has gotten better than the
20/100 that I used to be.
In the middle of the night,
this beach house still shivers and shakes.
Her boards are old and unsteady
and her eyes are veined and bloodshot,
but, she'd not going to stop
standing just because you're
trying to tear her apart.
I sleep tight knowing that you're
out there, somewhere,
trying to smile when you shouldn't be.
I sleep tight knowing you're
getting exactly what you deserve
because I used to believe you
when you made me promises,
but, I've come a long way from
the places where I was small and naive.
Now I'm full grown.
