Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace

A broken promise is just like a scar, it haunts you and remains there for a lifetime. Its something we never forget and even most of the time never forgive. Even in the people we trust the most once a promise has been broken its all we see. A flaw which remains in all of us and can even crush us. I dont understand it, how can people make promises then break them. Its okay if you have a genuine reason, otherwise its not even worth saying in the first place. And do these thoughts ever float away, I dont know but I'd like to think they do, like a cloud so they can disappear and be non-existent. "Lifes a bitch sometime" too true for my liking, I just want justice and for once, I want someone to keep their promises. You cant get everything you want, like a big house with a porch swing and you dont even get the choice on whether to pay the bills this month but you should have the choice to keep a promise. If a promise isnt kept, you maybe letting the down one of the most important people of your life and for that you may lose everything that ment something- a friend, a family member, or sometimes even a stranger.
