Love's Promise
The faint whisper of love's promise
echoes within her hollowed heart.
And she suppresses silent screams,
for forever has reached its end.
She sifts the wind to separate
the faint whisper of love's promise.
But the wind won't speak of such things,
and a tear trickles down her cheek.
Her heart was stripped of innocence
when he abruptly left one day.
The faint whisper of love's promise
fell silent as he walked away.
Although he's gone, she still listens,
knowing all she'll hear is the wind.
But in her dreams, she can still hear
the faint whisper of love's promise.
