Do not be there for me, just because you had promised to.
It is sad when promises are not fulfilled, but sadder still that you found them necessary to be bound to.
What is a promise if not a crutch to the one you make it to.
A crutch to hold on to, a hope that you will definitely make it.
What is a promise if not a whip that forces you to do something.
A whip that will make sure you do the work, even when you would clearly not have the will to.
Do not promise me anything as I would not be able to promise anything to you.
But I will be there for you whenever you need me,
Not because of a promise I made, but because I really would want to be there for you.
