Dear Maribelle,
I promised id never hurt you
i promised id always care,
i promised that id love you and that id always be right here.
U promised ur love was mine and i promisd my love was yours
u were my homegirl
my true friend
and i needed nothing more
but i lied mija d*mn,
and now ur six feet under no longer to see the light of day
and now im left to wonder
how could i have let them hurt you?
How could ive not of cared…
enough to seeing it coming
enough to persevere
The ultimate love in life…
the life of a true true friend.
enough to keep her safe,
and tie up the loose ends.
But i lied mija d*mn
now i only see u smile
when i close my eyes to dream
so i hope to sleep ferr awile
so i can drift away,
to the days we used to play
the days we used to laugh
at the stupid ish id say
But ily…
and i promise i’ll always care
and im keeping my promise mija
porque i kno ur always there <3
