You Promised

Promises mean nothing,

They're only disguised as something real.

But that's what you believe.

To me, even if its not real in your world,

It is to me.

A promise is a commitment to someone to do or not to do something.

You promised not to hurt me.

But you went ahead and made more cracks in my heart.

You promised to heal my wounds.

They only bled more.

You promised to take the tears away.

You created even more of them.

All those promises you made were broken.

Every time you promised, it only broke my heart more.

Because deep down inside,

You were going to break them anyways.

I'm sorry if its something I did.

Or something I didn't mean to be.

If it was because I was not pretty enough,

I'll use these scissors to make me beautiful.

If I was not good enough,

I'll give you this razor to remind me I wasn't.

If it was because I was just being me,

Then, I'll end my life just for you.

I promise you this.

Even if you don't really care.

Though you think promises are nothing,

They're everything to me.

But can you promise me one thing?

No?

Oh that's okay.

It wasn't important anyways.

I was just going to ask you,

If I gave you my heart,

Do you promise not to break it again?
