Broken PromisesA Poem by JazzAs the poem progresses, the syllables in each line become longer which I think is effective because it shows how relationships can become more complicated.A heartfelt promise to always be there And a heartfelt promise to always care. A heartfelt promise to live for the day And a heartfelt promise never to stray.
All these promises, though, were pledged in vain And their demise, along with love, caused much heartache and pain.
A broken promise resulting in tears And a broken promise resulting in endless fears. A broken promise resulting in tainted memories… A broken promise resulting in life-long enemies.
A promise is never truly sincere, Whether made by a stranger or someone held dear. © 2011 JazzReviews
