Promise Me Again Poem by Heather Kemper

Promise Me Again


If you say the words,
I'll listen.
I'll believe them,
I will try.

Promise me forever,
I'll be there by your side.
Promise to never leave me,
or stop loving me day to day.
If you say it,
I will listen
give me one more chance I pray.

Please lets just start over,
and I'll believe I stand a chance.
That in your eyes
I'm not the failure,
that it seems you believe I am.

If you say the words I will listen,
I'll believe it's really true.
That I can have forever,
and forever is seen here with you.

If you promise I've learned,
I'll listen.
Please don't tell me
it's become way too late.
I'm still worth promising forever,
not a failed unworthy mistake.
