A promise I broke... |

I made a promise That long gone yesterday I made a promise To forget those love-filled days I gave you my word That nothing of then would remain I gave you my word That none of our story would I retain Oh! Those days in love Those lovely days when We were in each other's arms - Arm-in-arm we walked Down these very lanes As I walk on this day Alone and battered. Ah! These days in pain! I broke the promise That I had made that yesterday I broke the promise Of that to be forgotten hurting day I didn't keep that word To forget you and your love's peace I didn't keep that word To drown those pieces of memories Oh! But how could I? How could I have buried the past I hold so close to my chest steadfast? Can you tell the sun to stop its rising glance? Can you ask the butterfly not to do its dance? Can you ask the breeze not to blow its airs? Can you ask the moon to simply disappear? If you can do all that, then my dear, I will forget you and your love, Maybe, just maybe, but can you? Can you forget me or my love? Or have you already? I made a promise But I had to break it. I gave my word, But I couldn't keep it. |

Sudhir, this brings to mind the many times I've felt this way. I especially liked the lines asking nature to just change they're course. You can ask, hope, and wish all you want but that does'nt mean its going to happen that way. I hope that it all works out for you. jason ![]() Just as soon as I belong, then it's time I disapear... -Metallica- |

Good to see ya here, Sudhir. This is a wonderful piece, but it's so heart-wretching. I hope this doesn't apply to your own life.
