Some Promises I Have Kept

Some promises I have kept
In my own way: some promises I have
Through long days, kept away;
But on troubled nights when I slept

I kept remembering.

I kept remembering those I had thought
Did not matter. There were days when
It worried me. What if destiny
Decided to punish me and my unkept vows?

In my own way I have kept my promises.
My mind has wandered, wandered
Onto many strange paths.
But then… I have not broken many hearts.
