What do you think this poem is about?

The Promise Kept

Believing what you said to me, I vowed to be secure
In what I felt, the disparity, I was not very sure

You broke my heart and let it go, I did not want to be
A notion or a simple prize to show, I wanted to be free

Freedom with you is what I dared, and my heart devoured every word
Of the renewed vow that you soulfully bared, your wanted to be heard

I came across your sweater one day, the one you left behind
Its texture soothed my weary way, I kept it safe and sound

You brought back words and certainty, you said you would be true
I ascertained a clarity that let me come back to you

So now I take it all in stride, what we have just begun
I laugh with giddiness inside, for all that we have won
