Broken promise ©

When u first saw me, i looked in2 your eyes,
unhappiness hadn't started, no pain, no lies.
u saw my tiny hands, a beautiful start,
u made a promise to me then, a promise with your heart.

The next few times u saw me, your little baby girl,
some days u would hate me, some days id be your pearl.
U never held my hand, u never helped me through,
Mummy said this would happen, please it cant be true.

I was older and u saw me, staring eye to eye,
the look that u gave me, the hatred in your tone,
then i knew the difference, my house was not your home.

That promise that u made me, the 1 made with your heart,
as i was lying next to mummy, u said we'd never part.
i actually believed you, believed in what u said,
i put in all my trust, to a man i thought was dad.

The last time u saw me, u looked into my eyes,
unhappiness had filled them, all pain, all lies.
i reached out for your hand, but they were apart,
u broke that promise, u broke MY heart.
