In the twinkling of my eye life fly’ by <br />Unaware of what the stands <br />Beyond the horizon <br />Every day with new promises, <br />New hopes and different uncertainties <br />Hoping at least new promises are fulfilled. <br /> <br />The pain a broken promise ends in, <br />Sometimes seems unbearable. <br />When you’re all alone, <br />It’s the promises that keep you going. <br /> <br />Walking alone on the thorny beds of life <br />Holding on to the pain <br />Of broken promises, as they strengthen me. <br />Holding on the untarnished promises, <br />Embellished hopes and renewed strength <br />I tread along in solitude.<br /><br />sheetal Vincent<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/promises-and-hopes/
