Promises

Well, not an easy word for everyone to understand completely. Some stick to their promises, some don’t. I realized after a while that I couldn’t stick to most of my promises and that all that I used to say were nothing but lies. But, come on, it’s very hard to keep up with everything you say. And it took my breath away when I realized that by lying I was hurting people. And people were hurting me. All I wanted was to be able to go back in the past and change all that. But, hey, I can’t. All you can do is try to fix it. And sometimes it’s too late for that. Too late to apologize and too late to start over. So you break. Your heart breaks. You fall. Deeper and deeper. You try to rise, but the memories pull you back to the ground. You are ready to give up. And that’s when the hearts you broke pull you up. The people with the broken hearts pull you up. People forgive, people change. That’s something you shouldn’t forget.
