A Yearning Fulfilled

Endangered Promises

Valentine's Week, Day 5: Promise Day 🤝🏻

This one has 2 points of view. His and her thoughts after their date last night. Hers will be in normal font and his will be in Italics.

Since I returned from the "date"
I've been contemplating all
That happened and more.

Did the hug mean something?
And when I held your hand
Did you feel that spark too?

Thinking and overthinking
Leading me to question everything
That was ever said and done between us.

The assurances you gave
And the promises you made
Are on the verge of being endangered.

.

Pondering over yesterday
I can't stop thinking about the hug
I wonder if you feel the same

And when you held my hand for a while
I felt a connection like we had before
Oh God I'm still in love with you!

I know I promised to never hurt
And also that I'll never let
Anything bad happen to you

That I'll never leave you
And support you in whatever you do
And that I'll always love you.

.

The song you sang for me
Which said I was your peace and
When you close your eyes, I'm all you see

And when I was scared that you'll lose interest
Or that you'll get bored, you told me
That 'love' doesn't get tired.

.

I was such an idiot for hurting you
Never realised my actions were crushing you
How will I ever make it up to you?

You were always there for me and kept
Trying your best for us. If it wasn't
For you, there would be no 'Us'

.

I understand you've changed
But I don't know the reason
Why you turned cold with no explanation

.

I don't know what took me over
It was probably just a phase
And I had a lot going on with me

I know that's no excuse
For my insensitive behaviour
But I'm so sorry, I really am.

.

I don't even want an apology
Just tell me you still love me
That's all it'll take, I promise.

And I'll be all yours (I always was)
I've loved you for a long time now
And unlike you I never stopped

.

I was so wrong all this time for believing
That I didn't love you anymore
But I promise now, I'm still all yours.

​​​​Happy Promise Day, dear readers!🤝🏻
