This has no name, it is just emotion



You promised me forever,
But I knew that wouldn’t last
Though who knew the end of forever
Would happen so fast

I made no such promise
Only offered what I could
But I bought into your promise
Far more than I should

Now I have my own forever
But of a different sort
And I promise this forever
Won’t be cut short

Mine is a promise that will keep
You far from my life
Because having you in it
Would cause far too much strife

With your words and actions
You drove me far away
And I promise now forever
That is where I will stay

My forever also comes
With a strong second part
And that is to forever
Keep you out of my heart

Through this discord
Things came to a bitter end
We both have lost something
Me a lover, you a best friend

But perhaps that is better
And in all this there is a light
That false hopes and promises
Shall be forever out of sight
