Whispered spoken word

Whispered spoken word

A Poem by Debra Stevens Edwards (debby)

Whispered spoken word


Whispered spoken word
Promises softly heard
Often made in the night
Falter in the morning light
Will this one stand true?
Unite as one the two.

Lies uttered in spoken word
Untrue promise softly heard
They will wilt in morning light
These lies uttered in the night
Leaving one so sad and blue
Selfishly hurt by heartless you.

Will you keep your spoken word
Stand by promises softly heard
To share another loving night
Face together the morning light
Do you let your heart stand true?
To share an eternity made for two?

For each spoken word volumes
left unsaid,
perhaps the fingers crossed behind his
ly`ing head.
Sorry ! I got carried away.
Your poem is an inspiration. You say so much in
a few words. Sorry that much of what you say is
a reflection of your unhappiness.
"These lies uttered in the night
Leaving one so sad and blue
Selfishly hurt by heartless you".

Perhaps you should speak more specifically and
directly to this individual, accept the sweet lies, then
let him know exactly what the score is. He may be simply
indulging in his bad habit of admiring his own words without
thought of what those words do to you.

Your poem is beautifully written, it has that in common
with all of your writing. Beautifully written !

More please !

Promises are often made to achieve some purpose which once attained. REmoves the necessity to keep the promises. Whispered promises are always suspect A man who means what he says speaks loud and clear
