I wish you the best

Today, I discovered life. That it can come at you in a mirage of images. 

Where you are unable to grasp what it could possibly mean, 

that one moment you can be painting vivid dreams with someone

Have them carve out a future of possibilities, 

painting the smiles of the children you are to bear

The kitchen you are to design and

the home you are to build. 

Making the promises of a future which seem within your grasp, 

he came like a wind willing to whisper away all the trails of the past

only he would become the hurt you wish to erase

You would wish his name was written in the sand of the beach

so that the next high tide could erase it

The sand is my heart

the waters my past

and like the waves that promise to never cross the shore line

he promised to never hurt me

only, he didn't know that promises are not meant to be broken.

Instead he found himself making promises to the next women to cross his path

a narrow four months saw him walking down the isle of a court

to sign papers that promised her the forever he promised me

I am not so much hurt as I am disappointed

In the fact that humanity no longer exist

that one can not be bothered how many hearts you leave bleeding 

on the way to acquire your ever after

I know they say never to expect anything from life

else you will find yourself drowning in disappointment

but I would rather drown in broken promises then live a life full of black

forgetting that there is the white which is the light at the end of the tunnel. 

I write this to wis the man who never was mine to have a happy marriage

That he will find the happiness he promised me with her

not because I want to be the bigger person

but because I thank God I never lived to make infinity signs with a temporary person

That although it did hurt, I live to tell the story

of a lost love that was never mine to have

That he walked away before he could tear my heart to pieces.

I wish you the best of happiness. 

I wish you the best of marriage.
