Broken Vows

She ponders aimlessly, drawn by words.
The depth of despair in her wounded heart,
knows no bounds tearing her world apart.
Some broken vows and promises unkept,
few morals to transgress, step after step.
Fear of the consequences brim at dusk,
tears of resentment run down her core;
Then dawn arrives with some new hope,
some new promises, a few more to cope.
Her future so bleak she longs for more.
A chance she seeks to set it all right,
go back to the innocence a hopeful light.
From the dark world she now transcends,
to a new life, she vows to make amends.
