Broken Promise

Brought into this world
With promises of a future,
Starting with hugs and smiles
From all those around,
As the years slowly pass
The love seems to fade away,
Forgotten meals and unanswered cries,
Strangers with loud voices
Coming and going without a care,
Eyes and fingers lingering
In places forbidden,
No explanations offered,
Only dirty secrets hidden away

About this blog...

All poems posted here are written by myself, and I hope the ownership of my work will be respected.

I am 25 years old, and have been writing since I was 8. All poetry is dedicated to the teacher, Miss Charlotte, who first introduced me to this genre of writing.

Challenges

I use several writing prompts, mostly photographic prompts, for my work. Often when I am not consumed by a thought or emotion, I need a little help in writing. I subscribe to two photo blogs as listed further below for prompts. I also take challenges to write about random words on my Twitter. A new challenge I am using is from Deviant Art. I look at the first page of the most popular photography in the last 8 hours and take one to write about.
