You heard it, right?

Those sugar-coated, tender reassuring words
he once spoke
With his brimming eyes and gentle lips
That whatever the odds
Together, you will sail through the fiercest of waves
Climb through the peakest of hills
Cross even the furthest oceans and seas
Just to stay in each others’ warmth and never leave.

But now there’s nothing you can do but to kiss
the shapelessness of his empty words, sentence and phrase.

Perhaps, those promises you held upon
Are nothing but mere letters and chants thrown by the folly of his tongue.

A broken vow,
A fantasy told;
A happily ever after that should have been sealed with that one blissful kiss——However, it all ended as a miss.
