Promise

Promise

You promised to make me happy, to take all the hurt away.

You promised me a lot of things

just to make me stay.

You promised that you would be my friend,

to help heal the pain.

You promised that you would keep me safe

my shelter from the rain.

You promised you would be there

every night and every day.

You also promised other things that you forgot to say.

You promised me pain, discomfort and tears.

You promised me a past that will haunt me for years.

You promised to keep me prisoner

to never set me free.

You promised me a funeral,

You took a friend from me.

You promised me loneliness.

You promised me strife.

But one promise I had to brake

was your promise to take my life.

Though you’re not human,

you have ten times the strength of man.

You bring destruction to anyone

that holds you in their hand.

I’m glad that I am rid of you

though you were hard to beat

And now I can stand tall and proud

on my own two feet.

It's sad to think of the others

that will live with your misery.

But there is one promise I make to you.

Those others wont be ME!
