Swallowed

Shattered, Battered and Weathered

Remember when?

Your broken mirrored promises

tied knots in ribbons long ago frayed and a

Broken heart left

Swallowed.

Promises, so many

Patience, so little

Crushing pain and despair

A seeming disconnect

A knowing hurt.

Endless waiting

hoping

wishing

Now, years in shambles

WHY?

Different than me has always been an enemy.
