Impossible Feat

How can I say it? How can I agree?
When all that’s here is so fucked up,
When surrounding me is misery.
I’ve heard the words uttered before,
Heartfelt, bring-a-tear-to-your-eye, so pure.
The same lawful words whispered through veils and tears,
Never kept for very long; playing on my fears.
Positive about you, about us, knowing full well that this is love not lust;
But scared, annoyed and broken by the institution,
Left wondering after seeing it go wrong so many times,
If it’s all just an illusion.
If it’s so easy to lie or even walk away,
What meaning do the words hold today?
I need this to be forever, concrete;
Yet I’ve watched it fall apart so many times,
My heart fears it’s an impossible feat.
