Your mouth opens,
words speak, “I pinky promise”,
I fail and believe,
“I won’t hurt you”,
“I’ll never leave you”,
“You are what my heart wants”,
pink promise you say?
what happens now?
I don’t understand how a promise could be made to hurt,
the guilt I hope you feel,
the pain you made me feel,
pinky promise?
were your fingers crossed behind your back?
I let you hold a gun to my heart,
hoping you won’t pull the trigger,
but you did,
you pinky promised.

do you ever feel like part of you still wants to believe those promises… even after everything
i used to replay their promises over and over till i realized they were just words. what matters now is how you show up for yourself after all that hurt
i remember those same “i’ll never hurt you” promises… i clung to every word like it was safety, and then watched it all turn into pain. pinky promises really do leave scars
