Broken Promises
When I make a promise
I remain very true
And I would never break my word
Especially not to you
But now your word has been broken
Perhaps there is a reason for this
But it is something I no not
Which makes me feel impervious
Because this pain that you have left me
Is so very, very strong
And that hurts very deeply
So now I sit here and I long
For I wonder where you are
And if you are indeed doing fine
Or are you in some kind of trouble
Maybe somewhere from behind
My instincts keep on telling me
That there is something not quite right
Because it's not within your nature
To just leave in flight
But I really need to talk to you
Because I really need to know
Whatever did I do to you
To make you want to go
If I've given you the wrong impression
Or upset you in any way
For this I'm truly sorry
And perhaps you will forgive me someday
You see, I'm not always the pillar of strength
Although I usually need to be
I sometimes fall to human destitute
Just to keep my sanity
So when, or if, you see these words
Please, show me a little devotion
And tell me if your truly fine
So I can rid myself, of this dreadful emotion
I remain very true
And I would never break my word
Especially not to you
But now your word has been broken
Perhaps there is a reason for this
But it is something I no not
Which makes me feel impervious
Because this pain that you have left me
Is so very, very strong
And that hurts very deeply
So now I sit here and I long
For I wonder where you are
And if you are indeed doing fine
Or are you in some kind of trouble
Maybe somewhere from behind
My instincts keep on telling me
That there is something not quite right
Because it's not within your nature
To just leave in flight
But I really need to talk to you
Because I really need to know
Whatever did I do to you
To make you want to go
If I've given you the wrong impression
Or upset you in any way
For this I'm truly sorry
And perhaps you will forgive me someday
You see, I'm not always the pillar of strength
Although I usually need to be
I sometimes fall to human destitute
Just to keep my sanity
So when, or if, you see these words
Please, show me a little devotion
And tell me if your truly fine
So I can rid myself, of this dreadful emotion
