BROKEN PROMISES

You're always making promises,
that never can be kept...
and when I admit you're breaking them,
the truth you won't accept...

It's hard to hold my anger in,
I'm trying not to get mad...
but still you find a way somehow,
to make me feel so sad...

Although I know you love me so,
even when I'm not there...
but when you make those "BIG MISTAKES",
I don't think you give a care...

I never want to lose you,
You're my only love...
but can you please give me.
the respect I'm thinking of...

I know somewhat it's not your fault,
after all you pick your needs...
You go where you go, like who you like,
Wherever your heart may lead...

But at the time being,
I'm the one in your heart...
you have to think how you're hurting me,
how you're ripping me apart...

I wait and wait everyday,
just to hear your voice...
yet you're never there for me,
to think if it's your choice...

My heart is aching badly,
longing for your touch...
Can you spare some time for me?
or is that asking too much?

I'm wondering how you feel inside,
if you still love me so...
how long before you break my heart,
that i'll never know...

I hope somehow someday,
you'll make time for me...
but as long as you're still with your friends,
I'll have to wait and see...

You're always Breaking Promises,
the PAIN in my heart is deep...
If you ever want me to forgive you again,
Then a Promise is what you should KEEP....
