My Promise

by SashaMirage   Jul 11, 2008


I should end this now
Its not like I belong.
Lie and say you love me
Like you've done all along.
Its written on your face
that you live in my pain.
Each and every day
i live my life in vain.
You made so many promises
that you did not intend to keep.
You promised to be here for me
but while I cry, content, you sleep.
You think I'm en-caged
because of this ring.
But I have to tell you
that you forgot something.
I am not the girl
for you to push around.
I have no chains
I'm forever unbound.
Even if I stay in your darkened jail.
You'll never break my spirit.
I promise you will fail.

    This is another beautiful write. Behold the power of simplicity (: I know many women can relate to this piece, which is a very sad reality. But the message you are portraying as a strong individual is a great one, that should be recognized. Great job, not much else to say!

    Keep writing
