A Promise
Once I told my friends through broken words what I was going to do, a promise I should never have made.
It fell through my lips before I had the time to think about what I was doing.
I spent all night trying to hold it closed between my fingers.
But it fell through my hands. I couldn/'/t keep it.
The next day I brought my friends the promise, shattered into pieces.
My friends in return brought me their hearts, shattered into pieces.
They were counting on me to keep my promise.
I was counting on them to keep me from making one.
In the end, neither of us came through.
I had broken them, just as they had broken me.
