약속해요 (i.p.u.)

remember when i gave you the copy of my third song?

you wanted to throw it because i didnt give you the first ones.

i told you it was for someone else, and this was just for you.

so you accepted it.

we were close back then, like siblings.

you were a few years older so you'd treat me like a princess.

we were always there for each other.

but why did it feel like something was wrong?

i knew you felt something off when we were together.

yet i shrugged that off because i didnt want you to think i was thinking against you.

i treasured you so much.

i promised you i wouldnt leave your side.

i promised you i would always be with you.

and you did the same.

one night, i called you. i asked where you were.

it was my birthday. but you werent there.

when you answered after how many missed calls i felt happy.

but it faded when i heard what you said.

"dont call me anymore! you think everyone wants to be friends with you just because you're kind?"

you paused for awhile.

i cried silently, listening to the words that cut my heart deeply like a new bought knife.

"hah, bitch you thought! no one wants to be with someone as boring as you. people only use you because you have things they dont! you--"

i couldnt take it anymore, i dropped the call. even before you could finish.

what was the point in listening to your words when it would only be the reason why my heart would break.

i was never a strong person.

i acted like one because every once in a while, we need to be the hero of ourselves.

i met you when i was in pain.

i met you when i was alone.

and i couldnt stop myself from giving you a part of my trust.

a part of my life.

and i dont regret it.

i've met people who broke my heart and my soul on the way.

and now, you're one of them.

but arent the people who break our hearts the people who leave most lessons?

i dont regret meeting you, befriending you, trusting you and. . .

. . . leaving you.

at the midst of winter, i met you who became my spring.

and even after all that has happened,

you will still be my spring.

the one who brings joy and sunshine in my life.

i may have forgotten how it felt to have you by my side.

but my heart will never.

it will long for you forever,

and i promise to keep you here forever too.

this time it's true,

i promise you.
