Five promises (40)

//

I promised myself five things.

one is to treasure you,
even though you're gone.
to treasure the things that we had,
all the laughter, the sadness, and the fun.

two is to forgive you,
for what you have done.
afterall life's given me this challenge.
Where I'll just go with it, and never have to hide and run.

three is to enjoy life.
Like what my mom said when I was five.
To go explore different things.
To learn, to know, and to achieve what I strive.

four is to let you go,
I'm not rushing it, I'll try to go slow.
And i thank you for the temporary happiness.
And I'll pay the things that I owe.

Five is to never ever cry,
cry for the love that has died.
soon, i know you'll understand why.
And it's because I'm tired shedding tears
for what's no longer mine.
