Today I made a promise,

I will try to make it ring true,

And if I fail,

I feel that they will feel blue.


Yesterday I made a promise,

Not one fake smile,

I know that one will break,

I won't be able to keep that one for a while.


Days before I made a promise,

I must not cut,

I have failed that one many times,

With all the doors I've shut.


Weeks ago I made a promise,

That I wouldn't look I would see,

It was hard and I made it work,

But now I can't be me.


Years ago I made a promise,

Not to fall in love,

No one for me,

So maybe I would have a chance to rise above.


Most of my past promises broke,

Will this one fail as well?
