A BROKEN PROMISE
A broken promise torments time’s heartbeat
and shadows drive, regret what we conserve
endless reflections given such discreet,
we cling to such despair and such reserve,
betrayal, splintered mirror, stress so deep;
our memory pains from yesterday’s cold words,
our pain exposes chaos, numb of sleep,
a stormy scene has made us act as drunkards,
loss drags on, then stays past all we can hope,
we lose our path and can’t let matters air,
a curse impacts on fortune’s way to cope;
our tight defence, plus views for blame declare.
We let go mean display of painful plight,
we see the way to new beginnings light.
