Year One:  Girl met boy.
Year Two: New memories were made
Year Three: Time apart was need
Year Four: Girl's heart had been broken into million pieces
Year Five: Despite the broken heart she stood by boy's side.


A long story told short
Leaving out every detail

Every pain I ever felt
Every tear I ever shed

Stayed because I loved him
Stayed because I wanted him to be okay

Why did I stay?
A promised

I promised to not walk out
Not to walk out like everyone had once

As I continued to keep my promised
I cried blood, he shattered my heart
over and over and over again

Even at that, I continued to be there
Not giving up on him, not walking out

My heart could no longer bear such pain
My body begged for it all to stop
My mind could no longer think

Heart well my heart was being insensitive
Insensitive to my mind, body and soul
The pain unbearable

I did not hated him
I forgave him
Over and over and over again
I forgave him
I do not hate him

How can I stay?
A promise
