you told me that you'd be there 

 

you told me you'd be on time

 

'i'll be right here waiting'

 

you promised to be with me

 

you promised,

 

and you lied.

Ah God. I wish I could explain in just a few words, but I've been the one who has broken that promise way too many times, and the guilt eats me alive. This is so touching and intense to read. Maybe it's just me. One thing though, that I've noticed throughout all your writing, is that your writing inspires true and raw feelings and emotions. That's amazing. That's incredible. That's so rare.
