Promises

Promises

A Poem by Mary Christabel George
"

And they easily say this "Promises are meant to be broken"

"

Promises

 

"I Love you"

"And so do I"

"Do you know what does that mean?" Asked I

"Yeah..

It’s a promise, that I will stand by you

No matter what happens" Said he.

Bifurcating Love & Lust

The Gushing Adrenaline rush

Love so much so, no place for fissure

But, friction occurred, parting ways

"Promises are meant to be broken, You know".

He said confidently.

Learn something, you poor soul!

Could you?

“Do you take this women as your wife?” said the Godman

“And promise to love her in sickness in good times & in bad times alike ?”

“Yes I do”, heard the trinity.

Roses & wine everywhere

Love nest & spectators engaged in merry making

Then, Cross came in conjugal blemish

Leaving bruises as symbol of Love

Promises are meant to be broken, You see!

Now learn something, you foolish soul!

Would  you?

Real victory is not letting bitter experiences leave your heart bitter. You will do good...I know. You are a bright soul.

The poem is a grief-stricken story in itself. While the beauty is that it was neither of those. On a second read i could see the melancholic scenes that the poem states, with music in the background. Doleful but an A for the depiction.
