Sometimes the truth flows along that journey we wish for, it is when we come face to face with the half truth that we realize it was only
...a promise waiting to be broken

| Promises. They run through our veins - often the lifeblood of hope and dreams. Strength comes through sustaining and, perhaps, redirecting the hope and dreams even after the promises have dissolved. When the seratonin subsides, truth rises up. |

I can recognize those moments when we look at all the lies and omissions, broken promises... and there isn't much to say or do. We can feel their heavy presence until we decide to do something about it.

People who choose to live their lives by being negative, shall find that in the end it was a waste of good energy. Positivity is always the way to go with any situation and that means speaking your truth.
Lovely poetry, my sweet Bella. Have a safe journey and return to us safe and happy.
Peace, love, and light,

A sadness to this, yet always with a resolve to move on... it seems to be a common theme/thread in your poetry... that resoluteness, not sorrow for what was and is no longer, but rather an acceptance and gentle hope for better things to come...

Sometimes, not telling the truth is not the same like telling a lie, it is an omission?
Sometimes, not telling a lie is not the same like telling the truth, it is that an omission too?
And then, we have a bouquet of broken promises giving the stench of guile.
