Promise
April 24, 2014
I promised I would refrain
Not give in to the temptation
But still picked up the blade
I promised I would hold back
Refuse the irresistible offers
Still kissed another man
I promised I would never destroy
Never hurt you again
Went back into old patterns
I promised I would not leave
Always stay by your side
Jumped onto the closest train out
I broke those promises
Sorry I couldn't keep them
Wish I could try again
My last promise to you
Never can I be trusted
For every promise will be broken
