Disillusioned Vows
Unfulfilled little promises that my people made to me..
My mother vowed me to buy a heart shaped dollar..
But she didn't
My father vowed that he would buy own house..
But he didn't
My girl friend told she would teach me to ride bike ..
But she didn't
My best friend told he would offer me treat..
But he didn't
My partner told he would invite me abroad ..
But he didn't
I too made a promise but it's on tussle..
I promised to be a lifelong friend
To one of the girl who's posh trend
As our friendship grew high
I began to sadly sigh
I analysed her personality thorough
As I slightly disliked it though
Managed to stick and adjust
Not letting her aware that am unable to ingest.
But still somehow I promised to be her affable friend
despite knowing one day she is gonna force me bend.
I need to maintain distance mode
to prevent from fight explode
We all do promises for one or the other reason
Once given away your promises
Lock it in heart's folder premises
It has to be consciously kept
Later not distressfully wept
Before you make
For someone's sake
Not knowing if they're fake
You need to ponder
Then later don't wonder
Finally when it is made
It should be saved
Don't allow it to fade...
