Day 47-So Many Promises

Memories
If they serve me right
I've been made so many
Promises
For as long
For as far back
As my memory allows me to
Many made to be broken
Others halfway served
Those forever left me
Cautious and unnerved
Letting me believe
No one would ever
Give me the gift
Of keeping their words
Until I met someone
Who gave me
More than that
Not just keeping their words
But wanting to
Never once scolding me
For "bringing it up"
But always thanking me
For "reminding them"
