Promises

All the promises you make me
you never keep them, now I see.
You say you'll call,
of course you dont,
Spend a day with me,
I know you won't.
My hopes fly high,
the excitement is there
But you passed by me with a stare.
So once again a night at home,
I'm by myself and so alone.
I yearn for your touch
and to see your smile,
But it's an image that fades after a while.
I still have the memories
tucked deep in my heart, for I won't let them go
because without them I know,
I'll loose that last bit of your heart that I kept.
But then I think of all those dark nights when I layed there and wept.
I dream for the day that my last tear will fall,
for maybe a promise you make me,
you will keep after all.
