I hurt myself by hurting you

 

I made a promise that I couldn't keep,
and it breaks my heart to know I am the reason that you weep.

I swore that I would change,
but my mind is too cluttered to rearange.

I said that I would start to pray,
but it feels as though there are some demons even God can't slay.

I begged you for another chance,
but I failed and in your eyes I couldn't even glance.

I kissed your cheek and said goodbye,
seeing you in your final resting place brought me to my knees and to this day I still cry.
