Promise

I am what you have,
I am what you want
And I am the one you promised to love always.
Good times and bad times
A promise is forever, remember.
So it hurts me
And I lose a part of something inside of me,
Dignity, pride, self-pity, self-denial
Call it what you will,
Each time you turn your gaze elsewhere.
The moment I lose your attention
Is the same moment I start to question
All over again.
So love me.
Want me.
Need me.
