My Promise to You

I sit here on the mountains peak
In the pouring rain
Crying painful tears
the blade in my hand so persuasive
I try to stay calm
Trying not to slide it over my small wrist
I keeo thinking to myself
Should i slide it across
And watch my life slip away
You left me alone and on my own
I lost you for so long
My heart begins to hurt
I stopped when i thought of you
And the promise that i made to you
Although things are hard and unstable
I will try not to break the promise i made to you
As time passes life gets harder
My promise to you has just been broken
Im sorry this has happened
I should not have promised something
I knew i couldnt keep
