A Lifetime Promise

So many memories we share together

moments that were given by time,

painting a picture that became unforgettable,

yet the thoughts of all the troubles I've given you

blinds the good times we shared.

Despite all the hardships we've been through
you still look at me with a nonjudgmental eyes
always giving me a helping hand when I fall,
you never walked away or turn your back,
sometimes when I look back, I wonder why.

I'll promise you I will not fail you
after all, your teachings are the reason

that I became the person I am today,

even though I cannot control what may happen in the future

I'll promise you I will never stop loving you. 

I'll carry your lessons with me

those moments that are more precious than life itself

because it's thanks to our differences
we taught each other how to understand one another
and...

I'll promise you I will not fail you
after all, your teachings are the reason

that I became the person I am today,

even though I cannot control what may happen in the future

I'll promise you I will never stop loving you. 

I will give everything to turn back time

and take back all the hate I expressed,

and all the times we fought and cried

but your gentle touch and guidance

helped me understand better who I am.

I would give anything to put a smile on your face

to make you feel proud of me,

and give you back everything you gave me in a lifetime.

I'll promise you I will not fail you
after all, your teachings are the reason

that I became the person I am today,

even though I cannot control what may happen in the future

I'll promise you I will never stop loving you
because after all I cannot do it alone,

you are my rock, you will always be there when I fall,

I will never give up on you,

so forever and always, I'll say to you,

I love you.
