Broken Vow

Together we once were, living as a pair. Our hands intertwined with faith, as dreams combined by fate. Oaths of everlasting love were spoken, as each faithful promises were taken. With a ring on our hands I pray, "may our chains of lifetime vows stay." But the word so cruel like a wakened beast, devoured us whole like a delicious feast. With every vanity we crumbled beneath, and our vow in vain found underneath.
