You Promised

...

You promised,

you would be with me,

through thick and thin,

in happiness and sadness,

in heaven and hell,

in chorus and silence.

You promised me,

a life of togetherness,

a home with happiness,

a friend with shoulder,

a partner of lifetime.

You promised you would be there,

when I close my eyes,

when I remember you,

when I need you,

when I feel lonely.

You promised me an eternity.

You promised me,

not to break your promise.

Those were mere words? Now when I walk through the deserted road feeling all alone I wrap jacket around me tightly. I try to feel you in happiness but you never appear. I try to feel you through pain but you never answer. I close my eyes, I remember you, I call you, but you never response. Where is your promised eternity? You promised me a home but all I have is a house. Where is that friend? Where is that partner you promised me?

Were all of this too much for you? And you found an escape? Only if you knew, all I needed was, you.
