' Alas ! My heart you are to leave your treasures at end of journey. _ Poet
Broken Promises
Second Place
Contest by Silent One.
Cool calm soft serene humble heart of mine aching being lone, as crack was shown on once -made promise. leaving a permanent bruise. My heart beats are to pulsate in slow rate as I’m alive till date. Not expected tragic end of love. Surely I didn’t deserve. Flow of tears to start piercing crust of my wounded heart. Wow secreted from tears-flow yielded pearl of dolour to glow. Fractured heart hard to be healed The holes couldn’t be sealed. Dreamy desires lost expectancy Me sinking in deep despondency. He promised me to be back by tomorrow . Years had passed, my heart is now hollow. For that ‘tomorrow’, I’m still awaiting - My heart is sweating ! He promised me never to be apart, but walked away leaving my broken heart.
