I promised to be there for you, I lied
I promised to never hurt you mentally, I lied.
I promised to never hurt you physically, I lied,
I promised to never break a promise, I lied.
But promises are broken, lies are made.
We're only human, but we forgive each other,
although lies hurt and break hearts that time sometimes just can't fix,
but life goes on, we learn from mistakes and broken hearts.
We try not to hurt each other, but it doesn't always work,
so this is my promise to you now,
I will always be truthful with you from now on,
I promise.
But most of all I am asking for your forgiveness.
Will you forgive me, please?

The author's comments:
After I got in a fight with my best friend, I realized all the stupid things I had done to ruin our friendship. I wrote her this poem. And being the wonderful and true best friend she is, she forgave me. We are still best friends to this day.
