A Promise I Cant Keep ( A Poem)

[Marcus Kobra]

A  Promise I Can't Keep

I watch you as you fall.
Often times I feel so helpless.
I see your pain, and I want to cry.
But I promise, out of respect my eyes stay dry.

I watch you as you fall.
Often times I feel so helpless.
I see your despair, And my lungs squeeze shut.
But I promise, I'm still sucking air.

I watch you as you fall.
Often times I feel so helpless.
I imagine the tears you shed, and my heart begins to crack.
But I promise, These cracks you think you see aren't even there.

I watch you as you fall.
Often times I feel so helpless.
Now your looking at me, and I'm meeting your gaze.
But I promise, This feeling I feel.... It can't be real.

I promise, your pains, despairs, and tears.... they don't hurt me as well.

I promise....

... But then again, those are all promises I don't think I can keep.
