If I ever meant anything to you, then promise me one thing

Promise that you’ll never hurt another woman the way you hurt me

All the questions left unanswered and messages unread….

All the “I love you”s that we never even said

Promise yourself that you’ll be a better man the next time around

Promises lost, never to be found

Promise me that and I’ll promise you this

One day when you look at her & go to kiss her lips

You’ll wish it was me. I promise.…
