You promised me

You promised me that you will always be here.
You said you would always care about me.
But now, when i need you most where are you, you're gone into thin air.
You said you would never go away.
You swore that you would never get angry.
I need you here now so that i can cry into your warm flannel shirt.
If you were never to go away, maybe we can be happy again. But we can't.
You are a liar.
You promised me you would never go.
Why did you have to die?
Imiss you so much.
