It Started With A Promise

It Started With A Promise 



 

It started with a promise 
A sacred trust we made when we were young.
Through happiness and tragedy that 
Sacred bond enabled both of us to carry on.
Standing beside me with your hand in mine
You helped me face my darkest days,
And your promise you would stay by my side 
Forever and always.
But always did not last and one day  I turned around
And you were gone.
I wondered how i would go through the pain of losing you
But I did and  managed to carry on 
To carry  on and find another way,
To pick up the pieces of shattered dreams
And was able to face a new day
And now I hear  sadly that you had passed on
Those memories we shared together are
Now only ones I can look back on.
I lost that special soul that one I will dearly miss 
When I think of him and our moments in this lifetime which I often do 
I fondly remember a friendship  and the love that started with a promise.
