Promise,
A word so
small in length,
Yet so great
in context.
A word
shedding light
In the
mindset of a human being.
How great is
you promise!
Promise,
A word signifying hope.
Hope for a
better tomorrow.
Hope for a
better lifestyle,
And or a
better or diffused situation
Which was
unfriendly.
Promise,
A word signifying inspiration.
A word of
great value.
Promise,
A major
cause of destruction;
A
destruction of peace!
A
destruction of relations!
A
destruction of reputations!
In you promise,
Lies deceit, betrayal and torment.
Through you promise,
Yes you, “a word of hope.”
People
disguise their true colors.
People break hearts
Yet they
vowed to do something.
Thus causing pain!
Behind your context
Lies great suffering and pain.
Promise,
A two ‘sided-rat’ kind of a word!
Through you promise,
Our hopes
are being raised for nothing!
Our hopes
are being raised for what?
Deceit!
That
sensation of joy and happiness,
Filled in
our hearts,
After
hearing ‘a promise’ word,
Turns into a
terrible nightmare.
The moment a
promise is fulfilled not!
Promise,
The cause of
mental breakdown.
An emotional
oppressor
Of a word you are!
A peace
destroyer!
How can such
a great and sweet
Word like you promise,
Be the
reason people kill each other?
Yes, be the
cause of most the fights
That have
spread through out
This world?
Promise,
Why in you
lies so much pain and torment?
Why do people ruin the beautiful
Context
in you?
Why misuse
the power that lies
Behind you
word of hope?
Oh you poor
word;
For your
beautiful meaning
Has been tainted
By the
wicket ways of humankind.
Promise,
May your
great context reign,
Over destruction
That has
been done to you!
Oh you word of hope.
Promise! Promise! Promise!
