A promise, by definition is a declaration or assurance that one will do a particular thing Or that a particular thing will happen Promises are made everyday                        Hundreds                             of                         Millions But so many of them are broken But why are they broken, some may ask But promises you see Are nothing They mean absolutely nothing They are not a bone that will hurt when broken They are just a bunch of words Spoken from one person to another A rule being set in place "We will be together forever" "I will never cheat on you, ever" I've heard it all                But rules are set                                 To be broken                                              So promises are made                                                                  To be broken

What Are Meant to Break
A promise, by definition is a declaration or assurance that one will do a particular thing Or that a particular thing will happen Promises are made everyday                        Hundreds                             of                         Millions But so many of them are broken But why are they broken, some may ask But promises you see Are nothing They mean absolutely nothing They are not a bone that will hurt when broken They are just a bunch of words Spoken from one person to another A rule being set in place "We will be together forever" "I will never cheat on you, ever" I've heard it all                But rules are set                                 To be broken                                              So promises are made                                                                  To be broken
I'm sick of promises being held to such a high standard, they all (at one point or another) get broken.
