Pinky Promise Poem by Naomi Fraser

I made a pinky promise
I'd be there tomorrow
I made a pinky promise
To stay

I made a pinky promise
To come to school - not wallow
I made a pinky promise
For one day

I made a pinky promise
To give in to the pain
I made a pinky promise
To live

I made a pinky promise
That I wouldn't give up
I made a pinky promise
But not to forgive

I made a pinky promise
Once, she did too
She made a pinky promise
For me

That little pinky promise
She should have made today
That little pinky promise
She didn't keep
