Unuttered Promises... Poem by Shreej k.c

Over the cliff,
she held his hands tight, alarmed with apprehension.
he whispered-'baby, it's okay, it's okay, let's jump.
'she took a deep breath, then the leap of faith without suspicion
only to find her head bleeding, body bruised.
Hardly had she let out a cry
when he waved hands, still at height, quite amused.
She wondered-was that okay!
stunned, she sealed her lips.
No, he never uttered promises.

On the roller coaster,
she held his hands tight, out of anxiety.
he exclaimed pointing to the eternity-
'This is fun! I want all the adventures with you, hon'
while the coaster ran through a transverse eight to stop.
Hardly had she sensed the thrill
when he pushed her swiftly out of el.
She wondered-was infinity just a loop!
giddy, she closed her eyes.
No, he never uttered promises.

Along the seashore,
she held his hands tight, strolling placidly.
he confessed-'with you I can be myself, in this world
there are only few', a second thought, 'infact one or two'
before he splitted into two, then four, then...
Hardly had she heard the profundity
when the clones encircled her mocking voices different.
She wondered-was he not the only one!
disturbed, she closed her ears.
No, he never uttered promises.

Yes, he was enwreathed in fire
and she was freezing in frost,
yet she burned, he went cold.
the unuttered promises...
