False Promises

"How can you just walk away like that? What about all those promises you've been making me?"

“Promises are meant to be broken. I was a different person then, but now I’ve changed. My preferences have changed. And I made those promises for me, for the sake of my own happiness. Now I’m not making any more promises, I’ve changed and I’m sorry for that”.

“What? You have changed. It’s easy for you. What about me? I can’t change myself. I can’t drag myself out of the fantasy world I’ve been weaving so long, keeping you in the center of it. I can handle your broken promises but can’t see you leaving. Keep on making those promises and keep on breaking them. May be someday, pieces of those broken promises will pierce my heart enough to kill it, or make it turn away. Not now please”.

“You want me to kill your heart. Are you crazy? I can’t do that”.

“What makes you think, leaving will not kill me”?

“I think I loved you too and if I can pass it, you can as well. Just remember, I love you and will keep on loving. But it’s not working, I got to move”.

“Why? Are you in love with someone else”?

“No, it’s just my mind. That’s compelling me to move on. You’ll find a better love, trust me”.

“I have never been loved and it stopped bothering me long ago. All I want is You, around me, all the time. That’s all I care about, that’s all I’m concerned about”.

“I don’t know how to react to this foolish logic”.

“Just come back my love. Keep on making those false promises and keep on breaking them. One day, you’ll either fulfill those promises or bury them with my heart. One day I’ll learn to move on like you, but that will be the end, I promise, my love”.
