Promises are fragile things
You say them in that moment
You mean them sincerely
You plan on keeping them forever
But sometimes forever ends
To quickly for promises
And all that's left are your words
Sweet or cruel markings
Made on a loved ones mind
Be careful with your promises
You may only keep so many
Any others are forgotten
Try not to contradict yourself
Don't make small things into conflicts
Never promise your heart away
Never swear on a soul
Broken promises lead to broken smiles
And makes one bitter for quite awhile
You say them in that moment
You mean them sincerely
You plan on keeping them forever
But sometimes forever ends
To quickly for promises
And all that's left are your words
Sweet or cruel markings
Made on a loved ones mind
Be careful with your promises
You may only keep so many
Any others are forgotten
Try not to contradict yourself
Don't make small things into conflicts
Never promise your heart away
Never swear on a soul
Broken promises lead to broken smiles
And makes one bitter for quite awhile
Sometimes when I want to write but can't decide on what to write I'll get a book and turn to a random page, the page number is how many words there is in the poem, and then close my eyes and put my finger down on a random word to use for the theme. Sometimes it can be a challenge, but it's a fun one.
This one was page 94, and the word was promised.
