Broken Promises

Where did it go wrong? We made a lot of sweet promises Weak foundation, broken soul Endless days of torture and snoring Now, my life is falling The day you left I died Vultures are still feasting on my body We parted on a golden dawn What a cruel world we live I tried but her past couldn’t let her be Why did this happen to us? Her face was like the bopping sun Her smiles were rosy as rosy roses Never knew her heart was full Of darkness and tears Now, there are two people alone Every day, I rove alone like a homeless dog I am a stranger in my body, walking Down a silent, ridiculing street Broken memories Living in the past can be very catastrophic Our love has jumped off the cliff Days of cold, shivering chimes I wish she could have trusted me more But her past killed her before we met With Habakkuk Kargbo (Rabbi) ©?Poem Makers SL (29/03/24)
