    Promises are sometimes hard to keep so we have to be careful in making them. Well done.

    This is definatly true...I cant really add to whats been said but that promises are hard to make, and we have to make them with the right people, it's hard to know who to trust these days..we really never know who is making a true promise and who isnt. Nicely done... with such few words you really summed a lot up.

    Aw Jimmy...

    Give it time, sweet boy...you will encounter lots of phonys, like we all do..but for someone as sweet and gentle as you a truly wonderful young girl is waiting, I am very sure of that..

    People do not always mean to lie when they promise you things, or not mean it when they say they love you...but sometimes love just dissapears and it is no one's fault..it just was not meant to last. Take with you all the good memories and forget the bad ones and move on, sweet boy;)

    Good things come to good people, Jimmy:)

    God bless you, son.

    5/5 Ingrid

    A short ... but meaningful write. It's true in this world.. sadly ... that not all promises are kept I suppose, Lol.And that love can come and go so quick. It makes it hard to trust/love... but sometimes it happens when we least expect. And we find one, whom we can both love and trust :) Keep believing! Lol. A great write Jimmy. Well expressed. Take care :)

    You said it right there. This needed to be said one way or another and I'm glad you said it at last.

    Right on the mark, Jimmy.

    Short and sweet sprang to mind and disillusionment. Yet when they do come true perhaps all those broken ones make it that more rewarding Eh!

    Short but smartly written...Love is oftenly mistaken with temptations..lol..cmon lighten up...Think of this, Love is just a game, and we are the players, so better play good before you lose it...

    Promises are hard to keep, but there are
    some who will keep their promises..why is
    there always sadness in your writes...? I hope
    to see a smile in the next write :) take care.

    Short yet meaningful. I really enjoyed it. Well we all sometimes made broken promises, but when we really cared for someone, we tried our best to make it a reality. Well done, kel.

    So short, so amazing. You have an awesome point, and the choice of words helps make this message really stick with you. I have to say you have done a wonderful job with so few words. Great job!

    This is one of the most beautiful short poems I have ever read... I loved the emotions expressed, and how you portray your perception of promises and love. I really enjoyed it. Amazing!
