Why Promise?

Why promise you’ll never leave me?

While all of a sudden, you started to turn away?

Why promise a love that is lasting and true?

While the love you gave, suddenly you want to take it back.

Carelessly leaving a broken me behind.

We’ve always been happy then.

Carefree of everything except ourselves.

Why did I believe in such promises that are only meant to hurt me?

Did we happen to live on a life of make-believe?

A life of illusions and fantasies?

And is this the end of it all?

The dreams that we built started to crumble.

Now, tell me. “Is this the promise that you made me hold on to?

A promise in which I poured my whole trust in you.

Tell me how to get out of this mess?… Show me how to overcome such odd feelings.

The feeling of loving someone who doesn’t love me in return
