Promises I Cannot Keep

I swore, I'd never let it break me, I'd never let it make be bitter. I told myself things would get better, But every scar burns red. I thought that I was stronger, But every encounter leaves me drained. It doesn't matter how good the day, I anticipate the pain. It doesn't matter If they say they love me, I can't trust them to be sincere, I can't trust them, to care beyond tomorrow. I promised myself, I'd give people a chance. I'd try to let them in. But so far, Those are promises I can't keep
