You Promised Me

You Promised Me Vs.1) Up again, in the night No sound, no sight Only thoughts endlessly through my mind I see your smile…I see your face And I just can't erase all the plans that we . Made for our lives Chorus) You promised me you said Forever but instead, here I am All alone in the night. Vs.2.) Another day, to get through Without love…without you Just one step at a time…I'll get by But I miss how we'd laugh at the drop of a hat, and I can't even smile anymore. Chorus) You promised me… you said, forever but instead, here I am taking one step at a time Vs.3. I'll be fine, yes I will Cause I have some hope still That one day all the pain will be gone Time heals wounds…or so they say But I just can't see the way My heart will heal without the piece you stole away Chorus) You promised me you said. Forever but instead…here I am… holding the pieces of my heart!

Dear Crystol, your poem is a raw and heartfelt expression of longing and loss. In each verse, I felt the weight of unfulfilled promises and the ache of shattered dreams. I liked how the repetition of "You promised me" echoes the betrayal of trust while the imagery of loneliness in the night shows grief. Yet, amidst the pain, there's a glimmer of resilience, a belief that time might heal the wounds and restore what was lost. Your words capture the universal experience of heartbreak, offering solace to those who have felt the sting of broken vows. - Blessings, Daniel
