*He said, “forever”. He said he’ll keep her safe.
But what are they, but mere promises blown away with the wind?*
Forever, he said
Promises, he made
Gone with the setting sun
Farewell, he bade
Down in flames
Up in smoke
Rings and letters
Oaths they took
Nostalgia that hurts
Flashbacks that pain
Memories that fade
Nothing left to gain
Broken and battered
Shamed and weak
Every nook and cranny
Her pieces she seeks.
