A Friendship That Never Again Will Be

A promise is an oath  one makes,
An oath two people  agree on to be.
A bond where an ending need never be.
If by chance one breaks this sacred trust,
Honor and friendship would end,
For with honor broken to end it is a must.
Trust and understanding would be no more,
And one’s honor will be scattered to the Winds and  return  nevermore.
No longer would one be thought brave, loyal or  trustworthy,
He  had betrayed all  trust and dignity.
For  going back on his word so carelessly,
He has lost the essence and the soul of what a man should be,
And a friendship that never again will be.
