Expectations

By Parizö Van Thulare

 They can ruin your inner self 
And leave you hanging on those shelves 
In a shape of pledges they transform
In a speed of a drone they come 
Usurping hopes
inventing an innocent heart with holes  
They always collide with a human heart 
hijacking that energy which was left a while 
They make no appointments
They are capable of disappointments 
To wear a happiness 
Always expect less
To feel the breeze
You have to hold onto your sleeves
