In the darkness of the dawn
man-made promises deflate,
into wisps of weeping wishes
that defeat you and negate,
as you hover on the brink
of a helplessness severe,
with the first rays of the sun,
let the truth release your fear.
What I've always believed: The truth shall be made known unto you
ReplyDeleteAnd the truth shall set you free!
Excellent.
man made promises that survive are hard to come by but we take them and feel their sting far too often....love the strength in that last line though....nice...
ReplyDeleteI never accept a promise as a fact Shadow. A fact is a reality come to pass and I can take the reality be it in the night or the day and the dawn..Pshaw a passing moment one gets over as the light rises, a backwards dusk.
ReplyDeleteYou can never trust man made promises. Humans will always disappoint us. Blessings my friend.
ReplyDeleteI love ya, v, and i know you aren't writing about me, but damn! It always seems like you are.
ReplyDeleteAnd sometimes, truth is hard to face~harder to apply.

I agree with Just Be Real -- high expectations = disappointments, but how do you release your fears? That, I'm having a hard time with. :\
