Promise is like a tree
It is hard to be brought down
It proudly wears its leaves like a crown
And gives a beautiful sound

Promise is like steel
It is never broken
It is never shaken
It will never be shrunken

Promise is like a crown
It was proudly displayed above
It will always be loved
Alwyas will be as beautiful as a dove

Promise is like the sun
It shines bright on everyone
It never betrays anyone
It never leaves someone

Promise, for me, is not fragile
Promise, for me, is always agile
Promise, for me, never tastes like bile
Promise, for me, is as hard as a tile

Promise is never broken
By someone you love most
By someone who took you as a host
by someone who lets you boast

I thought I have everything I want
I thought I'll have every stunt
I thought I'll have him forever
I thought my life wouldn't shatter

The promise he gave me
The promise I held on to dearly
The promise we've made to let our dreams be
The promise that allowed me to see

He always cared
He always shared
He always believed
That I'll never be deceived

He thought I could be anywhere
He thought I was meant to share
He wanted me to care
Even to something that wasn't there

He wanted me to speak
He wanted me to reach my peak
He made me this promise to me
So I can finally see

He made this promise
He gave me no mysteries
He gave me no malice
Then suddenly disappeared under the mist

He told me he never wanted to leave
But he still wanted me to forgive
He still wanted me to do these
Even when I'm full of his stories

And just like that
He said he is the one
And I believed
And now he was gone

Now I'm stuck here
Crying to hide my fear
His promise kept buzzing in my ear
Knowing he'd just left his only dear

I poured my heart out
I released my burdens with a shout
I made this song of promise
And realized I can't crumble to bits

I always thought promises were good
That it will never harm me
That it will never betray
That it will never lead anyone astray

I always wanted a promise
But not something like this
Not someone to trick you endlessly
Not someone who'll leave you crying to insanity

This song of promise
Everything that I would miss
I've always wanted a kiss
But not something like this

This song of promise
This song I never made
My feelings had the courage to create
A song that will never fade

Now I know that promise isn't a tree
It isn't like steel
It isn't like the sun
It's isn't like a crown

Promise is like glass
One touch and it will be stained
One drop and it will shatter
It can never, once again, be brought together

Promise is like the air
It will pass you by
It leaves nothing behind
It leaves nothing to find

Promise is like a curtain
When the wind blows, it was never certain
It was soft and graceful
But wasn't easy to maintain

Promise is like a mountain
It was hard to achieve
It was trying hard to be believed
And trying very well not to be deceived

Promise is like a bird
It will fly away from you
There's nothing you can do
To let it even have the slightest clue

Now, promise for me is fragile
It was not agile
It tastes like bile
And it's as brittle as a tile

Promise is like a door
It will never open
If everyone will leave it be
I guess now, you clearly can see

Promise is like a wondow
You can see your future
When the night comes
You will see your torture

Promise is like a book
You can put everything in it
When it is lost in a single blink
Everything will be gone and sink

Promise is like fire
It can destroy everything
silently, it'll continue singing
No wonder, a disaster it will bring

Promise is like trash
Left away to dust
Left away to rust
Leaving it is a must

This song is for you
For you who disappeared to the blue
Changed my heart with no clue
Now broken and had nothing to do

This song you wanted me to make
This melody, for you, I made with no mistake
This message I know =, in you, it's true
Please, let me show you your value

I won't give up
But you don't want me back
I will be here no matter what
In my heart, you're the one I want

I won't give upBut you don't want me backI will be here no matter whatIn my heart, you're the one I want

This kid really wanted to write about break-ups, no?

Yep. This poem is 35 stanzas long and back then I thought it's a good idea. Now, I was enlightened that starting every verse in a stanza with one word is annoying.  Really annoying.

This poem is also the last of its kind. It seems like I got tired writing crap. Lol.

Well, what do you think? Comment below on how wild the analogies are and how most of them didn't make sense. Ha-ha.

 Ha-ha
