I promise

I promise I'll give up, Not today though Not when I've left you in a state of confusion and pain. I promise I'll leave, Only if you promise to be ok But I don't trust you, cause you know how to mask the hurt so well. I can't promise to solve all your problems, But I can promise to stick by your side When all hope is lost and you are giving up I'll still be there for you. I know I may sound foolish and clingy, I'll bare the names and embarrassments Because for you I'd do anything just to make sure you're fine. I've sacrificed alot for you, I don't want a reward at the end Nor do I want to be indebted to you And when you're fine I might walk away. I've come so far and I'm not stopping now, For when you came to my life I knew I could withstand any challenges I knew I couldn't leave you to rot in the dark but stay until you see the light.
