Broken Promises

Every day that passes I believe you even more
That your heart is true, you love me as no other before

I struggle to believe I can have love ever true
But I'll fight till my death to have that with you

Thoughts that I've had love in my past
My greatest fear that this will not last

These the coldest days I've ever felt
And even amongst that you make my heart melt

You are the reason I no longer struggle to breathe
You are the reason this world I no longer wish to leave

You are the reason I have a glimmer of hope
You are the reason I'm able to cope

Without you I'd probably be a complete mess
Without you I'd be unable to process

Without you I'd fall apart at the seams
Without you I'd only wish for dreams

I promise to always give you my all
I promise to help you up if you fall

I promise to love you as long as I shall live
I promise to offer up all that I can give

For you I'd take on the world
For you I'm proud to call my girl

For you I love
For you're sent from above

My heart and soul in your hands to hold
My love for you professed and bold

My soul one with yours
My mind plays tricks, of course

Belief that we are meant to be as one
Belief that "our" life has just begun

Belief that this time shall be as meant
Belief that this will be time well spent

Know that everything I say is true
Know that I exist only to be with you

Know we'll have our rough times
Know when we do to just read these lines

Rekindle this fire that will forever burn
Remember for you I'll always yearn

No matter high or low
I love you, that I want you to know

I liked it..I can tell that you truly love that girl and your love is really strong..I wished I had someone who would be writing like this for me also..But I liked the way you expressed your love..Have you shown her this poem??? I hope that you have done that..After reading it her love for you will get doubled for sure..I can feel your emotions as I read this poem and this is the magic of poems that are written by your heart..I hope that you two stay together for your entire life like this loving each other the way you do now..
Keep writing..

Thank you for your kind words. If lucky in ones life you find that one that you truly love.

Yes she read most all my poetry including this one. Sadly she allowed alcohol to tear us apart.

She’ll always be the “one” but now I search for another to attempt to love as much as her.

[Riddhi]

Oh..I hope that you will get your true love soon..

[Sumo]

As do I and thank you. I am confident that regardless, the loss wasn’t mine. Someone will gain from her decisions.

[Riddhi]

Hmm..You know there comes a point when the best thing to do is to end it..

[Sumo]

I agree, I’m better just not completely over it.

I struggle to believe I can have love ever true
But I'll fight till my death to have that with you

I guess that's what matters... beautiful...

[Sumo]

Thank you, I've fought to no avail many times and will continue until I finally find my true love. Thank you for your review.

This is so nice . Simple , sweet, emotional. Really well written.

[Sumo]

Thank you very much

[Cœur]

Very nicely done, even if I'm a bit late in saying so. The rhymes aren't forced as they are in some other pieces I've read, yours flow beautifully.

[Sumo]

Thank you very much, I agree on the forced rhymes of most.

[Nisreen]

I still love this piece
Six months later

[Sumo]

[Nisreen]

i wish you all the best

Such a kind love, one that gives all credit to the loved. How very humble.
