Promises Won'T Grow

Sure took me a while To realize that promises won’t grow Ways to only know how How everyone is promised a lonely soul It wasn’t until I knew I know but did not realize At least not till its real The moment when love dies And its hard to go on... alone Is it really better like everyone says? Just the other day I was walking home To only seem like never days Perhaps irrelevant to think so Perhaps irrelevant to burden love Years bearing to only hold When a broken promise becomes but a sentence serve A while more, just a while Knowing before I realize too soon Love to only know how A promise comes from a broken wound Poem inspired with the song "Hard Left by Robin Hackett" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoRlCInxNIs
