Entrapped, held in place

By the fears I used to hold

And the fears you couldn't quell

Have caused my heart to swell.

And I'm in pain.

Bitter pain.

For the memories won't fade away.

And I'll never forgive you, when you promised me

That things would be okay.

And they weren't.

I was always there for you…

By your side, your hand in mine.

I'm sorry for all the empty promises,

Could you ever find the strength to forgive me?

I'll always be here,

No matter what.

And if you ever feel just a hint of pain

Just know that you'll always have me.

I used to trust you.

I used to admire you.

Your light…

But now that light has grown dark

And I'm blinded by the hurting in me.

I can't ever be happy;

Your memory still stands in mine

When I wish it would just go away.

I will never forgive you, when you promised me

That things will be okay.

And they weren't.

I was always there for you…

By your side, your hand in mine.

I'm sorry for all the empty promises,

Could you ever find the strength to forgive me?

I'll always be here,

No matter what.

And if you ever feel just a hint of pain

Just know that you'll always have me.

Nothing you can say can change my mind.

The ache is too prevalent

And the remembrance is still dominant.

There's just too much pain to be erased…

This drabble is a request, by Original Queen Xalele. The criteria was to write a drabble using the song 'My Immortal' by Evanescence for inspiration (without using any of the lyrics) about two of her OCs. I wrote about Kelly and Alice (father and daughter), and how Alice will never forgive him for making promises he couldn't keep. (forum stuff, so if you don't really get the poem, I'm sorry…)

Hope ya'll liked it.
