Come from expecting

You expect your husband to do laundry on his day off
Instead he plays golf
Disappointed

You expect to get the promotion
There was never a notion
Disappointed

You expect a raise
All you hear is nay's
Disappointed

You expect an I love you
Because you thought it was due
It does not happen
Never just in passing
Disappointed

You expect an A on the test
Because you did your best
Instead an F
Disappointed

You expect the kids to clean their mess
You pick up the rest
Disappointed

You expect flowers
You wait for hours
None
Disappointed

You expect great ***
You leave perplexed
Disappointed

You expect your date to be on time
All you can hear is the clock chime
Disappointed

Expectations
Lead
to
Disappointments
A world of expectations
Filled with disappointments
Go with the flow
Then who cares about the no's
