Promises
I feared
That your vows
To love no one
But me
Would someday falter
Like the inevitable
Transience of time
When your last kiss
Would ever froze upon my lips
Your caress would
Remain a memory
Of a dead leaf on the ground
You promised
Nay, it wouldn't happen
For the day after tomorrow
Your vows will be renewed
Forever hasn't come
Yet your vows
Withered like a rose
Plucked from yesterday
Your promises
Remained to be promises
Shattered and torn apar
