Theme: Fulfilling a forgotten promise

 

I still remember the first day you reached out

Our sorrows and pain were too loud

Yet, we found peace in pieces within each other

So we decided to stick a little longer

 

Days turned into weeks and we didn't even notice

We shared the same thoughts and interests

I grew dependent on you and I showed you my secrets

I showed you all the things I might regret

 

Fortunately, you did the same

You opened up to me as you called my name

I have never felt so safe in one's arm

I'm still craving it from time to time

 

We made a promise to each other

A promise that we'll always stick together

That we will help each other to let go of the past

And make memories that will forever last

 

We promised that we'll heal together side by side

You said that you'll help me ignore the voices in my mind

I told you that I'm always here to cry with you all the time

We were doing so well until that one night

 

You were out of reach

I was voiceless, you didn't let me speak

Like a bubble, you disappeared in the thin air

You left and I wasn't prepared

 

I was too dependent on you and I was scared

I didn't know how to fill the place you once stayed

You've been with me for so long, I felt lost without you

Each night, I ask myself if you think about me too

 

It's been so long since we last talked to each other

I wish you nothing but to be better

I hope that you are able to heal and move on

I wish you find a place where you belong

 

I will stay right here where we last met

And like you, I'll try to heal as well so don't fret

I will heal for me, for you, for us

Maybe one day, we'll meet again, happy and satisfied at last
