Be who you are. Don't be anything less.
Strength isn't just measured by how much pain you can take.


All those times
Rest in my brain
Tossing and turning
You Promised Me

All those times
We cuddled in your bed
And slept through morning
You Promised Me

All those times
You said you loved me
And would never hurt me
You Promised Me

All those times
You’d make me something special
And go on walks with me
You Promised Me

Did I do something wrong?
Something I’m not supposed to?
Because after all
You Promised Me

Now I’m all alone
And the good memories start to fade
Tears run rivers down my face
You Promised Me

I loved with all my heart,
But the day you left,
My heart didn’t return
You Promised Me

Day to day life
Is like the hollow space in my body:
Sadness and Depression
You Promised Me

Now my days
Could be no worse
Than they are now
You Promised Me

I trusted you to care for me
To help me with all the struggles
That I was bound to face
You Promised Me

Trust means nothing to me now
As does love is practically impossible
I’m broken and shattered like a window being shot
You Promised Me

My pieces lay scattered throughout my past
With no way to take them back
Do you know what you have done to me?
You Promised Me

I guess it was pointless
To think you cared
Even though
You Promised Me

And we all know
Promises are meant to be broken
Even though
You Promised Me
