Promises aren't meant to be broken

You made me promise not to leave you,

I did what you asked without a lingering thought,

on the condition that you never left,

me.

 

 

You loved me and I promise, I swear,

I loved you too,

even if I never showed it to you.

 

But the thing I think is funny,

is also the thing I think is sad.

While I had promised to never leave you,

To cherish all he times we had;

You had those fingers, behind your back,

crossed.

 

 

I was the only one to keep their promise,

because you were the one that left.
