"Broken Vow"

"Broken Vow"

A Poem by Rache David
"

What if he broke his lifetime promise?"

"

Wear this invisible thread -- as his vow;

For her -- a sign of an undying love.

A couple on crossed-fingers -- not to bow;

Figure of love and peace -- fly high white dove!

What if this knotted strand is let go?

On the right side -- unravel, uncoiled.

The thread, from perfectly bind -- is undo.

Yet, on the other edge -- still on hold;

Where the dove goes to? -- Its way goes blurry;

With the said vows -- flee in the winding road.

Where to find the route -- the sight couldn’t see;

If the only thread connects them -- severed?

Couple’s oath -- yet only one -- does not bend;

He belies his pledge -- “Till the very end.”

Suji Davie, I did like it very much indeed; Where the dove goes to?....flee in the winding road. The dove is wonderful as a metaphor; the ending slammer. Thank you. Love is so sad, sometimes. Thank you.

He probably cheated on her with some dumb, ugly wretched beast with no morals because she knew he was taken. So as for their vows, HE broke them.
