Love Was a Promise – Written Tuesday 16th May 2023 (Aged 48)

Love Was a Promise

love was a promise
that fell apart
when it failed to pump love –
around your heart
love was a younger person
with blind alleys
and fearless feet
it was an unhappened world
with unknown streets
it was a promise
and an impossible feat
a raging river
that turned into a tiny leat
love was a plan
dimensions or lines
love was a promise
a promise they can no longer find




James Garratt – Tuesday 16th May 2023
