"Protector"
Jacob Fitzlaff
10/16/05

I swore I'd protect you,
From the filth of society.
What are you now?
That which I fought against.

I swore you were the one.
We dreamed of the future.
Were those lies you whispered?
Did they make you feel better?

I swore I'd rip his fucking eyes out.
And I did.
Now I have a blind friend.
What good was it?

I swore I'd love you,
For a lifetime.
My mistake.
Are you dead yet?

I'll tell you what good it was.

I swore I'd protect you.
And I did, and still do.

I swore you were the one.
I still wake up and see you.

I swore I'd kill him.
He's dead and we aren't.

I swore I'd love you.
And I forgive you.

Love, Jake.

Doggone it! Are you getting emo on us? NOO! I don't know if I like it or not. Seems more of a rant and RATM is playing here in teh background so that's not helping me be objective. It's so sparsely worded. It's getting a point across, but it just isn't as memorable as some of your other pieces.
Sounds like Tullie is upset for sure though.
