Broken PromiseA Poem by ChelseaMy parents promise= broken.Broken Promise You cradled my infant self in your arms Endeared by the miracle of birth; the birth of your daughter But obviously I didn’t mean much Your street life meant more More than me! Your daughter! More than being my parents You were my knights in shining armour You armour lost all shine; it’s crumpled in pieces Your promise to be there, Was broken, But I never asked for this; you made the choice You lost me and I lost you Our lives no longer intertwine, I can’t tell you my dreams You’ll never know my sadness You won’t be able to contribute any happiness to me You can’t be in my life and I can’t be in your life I don’t know you; you don’t know me We are strangers; should have been a mighty team Maybe one day our paths will cross, But for now we live different lives I’m growing up and becoming a young woman Your just you, a failed specimen of a person.
