Love Poem: Broken Promises

Broken Promises

Where is the forever of our love?
Why aren't your arms wrapped
around me now, holding me in warm
embrace?

I hear the tick tock of the clock, the 
drip of the faucet, again, the lights are
flickering every time the upstairs neighbors
flush.
I am waiting for you still, your promises
really did mean something...
Didn't they?
