Promises As Best Friends

Pinky promises while we were
Still young. Just the two of us while
The whole world goes by in a blur.

Just as long as you keep that smile
And laugh for me, everything will
Be in balance. Every mile

Will do nothing to keep the spill
From happening, but we can
Still do it together. Every hill

We still climb together. No man
Or bad situation can ever come
Between us. Every plan

Could change. Nothing could drum
Out the promises we made to
Each other. I still keep them.

She promised she would keep it,
but it spilled out of her velvet lips,
as fast as my confidence drained.

Trust should be a virtue,
but it turned to be evil,
it made a life worse,
It made a person cry,
attempt suicide even,
just because it slipped someones mouth.

I once knew a girl

I once knew a girl
Her teeth were as white as pearls
She looked at me through shimmering emeralds
This girl, she had golden locks and curls


This girl, she said she liked me.
This girl, she meant it, it was to be.
This girl, she said she’d be there.
This girl, she said, you’ll see.


I once knew a girl, this girl, she liked me, but I didn’t know why.
I had nothing, I didn’t know how, this girl, she said she’d fly.
I had no goals, no money, no leg to stand on. I was lost.
I once knew a girl, this girl would be mine, and I would be her guy.


This girl, she said she liked me.
This girl, she meant it, it was to be.
This girl, she said she’d be there.
This girl, she said, you’ll see.


I once knew a girl, this girl, spent every dime, every second of time.
Proving to me, how she’d be mine. I didn’t know why.
I wasn’t worth any of it, and I proved it.
But this girl, when I’d call, when I’d text, she’d always reply.


This girl, she said she loved me.
This girl, she meant it, it was to be.
This girl, she said she’d be there.
This girl, she said, you’ll see.


I once knew a girl, this girl, she appreciated my efforts.
This girl, she proved to be a rare treasure.
I didn’t know a good woman, from a bad one.
But I do now, and I’m a broken man, ‘cause she’s gone forever.


I once knew a girl...

***No disrespect to the competition by the first line meant just having fun***
No care about a competition...you don't have to listen..to a little composition...Of promises, I promise this freind ...no idea what you're missin'...Truth be spoken promises and glass..Meant to be broken...Like this heart, from promises...Empty as my pen after I wrote this...Hopeless, to believe in them, created my beast within, darkness seepin' in...Promise it won't break me, never shake me, nothin' fake see...Promises, ruined me. You and me, I promise to believe..Greatness to achieve..Promise you is all I see..take all of me..fallin' free....Promise you'll catch me? Never let me down even if I make you frown? Irrelevant question..Learned my lesson, better than the best men, be your best friend...til the reaper comes around I'll keep your feet up off the ground. Promise, me is safe and sound...See you're shakin' now, think I'm fakin'? How? Your feet I'm takin', out, from underneath you...Promise to never leave you, know I don't believe you...If you promise you don't feel the same, see the feelin's strange but let me heal your pains...Promise I don't believe me either, my past is an ugly bitch, promise you don't want to meet her, promise my dying wish... You the top of my bucket list, anything else, does not exist, everyone sells...You fake dreams, fate seems to have crossed our paths...Purely promising perfection promises probable problems, probably puts pressure places purity promisingly...Should be, Promise you'll regret what could be...Promise you're heaven sent, not heaven scent...Promise its..evident, Promises shouldn't be made..Promise this, the problem is you don't believe in promises...either.

Apologize for any spelling or grammar mistakes I like to write from the heart with almost little to no editing.
