Promises

you know, i used to believe in promises

but then i met you.

i used to trust in promises.

i hoped they came true to.

but then...i met you

i made promises myself you know.

but then of course...i met you

i used to provide my time into promises.

but then..i met you.

oh society how you changed my mind.

on promises, and how i waste my time.

i used to believe in promises till society brought me to you.

i guess it was just to temping for you to brake them to.

so you fed me promises.

you fed them to my heart.

and now i am broken, broken apart.

but i guess its not all that bad.

you showed me to give up on promises

and to not trust oh so much.

because i guess its to hard to keep a promise

than to just lie and break apart a young girls heart.

so here i say thank you.

thank you for the pain.

and the wake up call to know that promises are nothing more than a stupid, sick game.

Author's Note

It is a bit dark, but you approached the topic with an honesty that made it all the better. Keep it up. :)

Trust Builds Everything And I Think We Can't Help Trusting As Long As We Want To Complete Living By We Have To Risk Beaing Broken And Stand Very Still !!

[John F Carver]

Without promises we are sunk, no risk, no gain, no learning to trust others, the future or ourselves. The sad truth is you have to make and receive promises before you learn what is a promise and what is someone else' vanity sucking you into the vacuum of their itty-bitty being. I'm going to rate it high even though it is more self-therapy and not really publishable stuff. Your pain is worth it, don't give up on promises too easily.

Well expressed! Broken promises are the root of much sadness in this world, but we must learn to forgive and forget, so that we can move on.

Great job with this poem.
