With each passing day it gets harder and harder.
The promise of my future fades further and further away.
I don't know if I can keep pushing through, keep moving on, so promise me forever.
Promise me that the pain will stop.
Promise me the abuse will be over.
Promise me that in 8 short months I'll be free.
Promise me I have a forever, a home that I can call mine.
Promise me you'll forever love me for me.
Promise me that you'll protect me.
Promise that the dark nights full of tears won't pass in vein.
Promise me I'll be ok.
But I know you can't promise me a forever.
It's sad to say.
How long is forever anyway?
Not very long, not in this day and age.
So goodbye to my "forever"
I'll find you one day.
