I lost myself when I was young chasing things I didn't need to chase, taking all these different roads learning as I go down these roads, living the best way I knew how. sitting under the stars as they shine bright tears falling down my face trying to understand all these broken promises that were made in my life. raising my children the best I could. every day wasn't good, I struggle and did the best I could I sit and look up at the sky the moon the stars that was so beautiful with tears falling down my face, why all these broken promises. I have seen dark places, I have seen dark places I never thought I would come out of, I look up at the stars the moon and sky now I understand all my Broken promises, I picked up all the Broken pieces and put them back together. see all the Broken promises made me stronger and a beautiful person I still have a good heart, no one can change or ever take that away from me, I still smile happier than I have ever been. without all the Broken promises I wouldn't appreciate the little things in life , I wouldn't be the woman I am today.

Broken promises
I lost myself when I was young chasing things I didn't need to chase, taking all these different roads learning as I go down these roads, living the best way I knew how. sitting under the stars as they shine bright tears falling down my face trying to understand all these broken promises that were made in my life. raising my children the best I could. every day wasn't good, I struggle and did the best I could I sit and look up at the sky the moon the stars that was so beautiful with tears falling down my face, why all these broken promises. I have seen dark places, I have seen dark places I never thought I would come out of, I look up at the stars the moon and sky now I understand all my Broken promises, I picked up all the Broken pieces and put them back together. see all the Broken promises made me stronger and a beautiful person I still have a good heart, no one can change or ever take that away from me, I still smile happier than I have ever been. without all the Broken promises I wouldn't appreciate the little things in life , I wouldn't be the woman I am today.
