Vows

A façade of a family

That’s what you wanted

Praise for your show and tell project

Empty meaningless words

Arid eyes

Bruised knuckles

Sorry is as sorry does

you should know better than anyone

But it’s a little too late for sorry.



A real family

That’s what we wanted

That was the agreement

Our signatures were on the dotted line 

The powerlessness of faith

Only teary eyes and sodden pillows.

Misplaced trust,

Dashed hopes, 

And shattered dreams.
