Promises

           I say them so easily

As if they cost me nothing

I say them almost believing 

But deep down inside, I know I'll be leaving

But I won't let you know, that one day I'll have to let you go

Until that day appears I won't make the end seem clear

Because even though I know it's true

It hurts so much to think of leaving you

So I try to make it worth the time

I'll smile and laugh with you by my side

I'll hold you close for the time that's slipping

And store the memories that I can, never mind their fleeting

And when its finally time I turn away

And I know that you don't see me crying

It hurts so much, I feel I'm broken

I know your hurt but I try hard not to notice

And so here it ends

Will I ever see you again?

I'm not sure 

But one thing I vow to comprehend

I'll never make a promise to anyone again.
