No One Kept Their Promises Poem by MD SHAHADAT HOSSAIN

No one kept their promises,
Once my father promised me for a kite
Still I remember that memories,
After listening that my face became bright.

Then lots of years passed,
I was waiting for that eagerly,
But I didn't get what I was expected,
I couldn't erase that from my mind easily.

Once my Grandfather promised me for a bird,
I was dreaming for that bird at day and night
I thought to bring that bird was not hard,
But what I was thought it was not right.

Once one of our leader promised for a bridge
It's already passed fifteen years
He did promise only for promise,
It's not necessary to remind, who cares?

Once I gave some money to one of my friends
I was wondering I woukd get it back or not,
I had a little idea about his backgrounds,
When I asked for money he became hot.

Once I met a girl, she promised me,
Someday she would get me married,
When she met someone else she forgot me
I couldn't do anything but cried.

There was nothing that I didn't do for her,
I was ready to do everything for my love
Now she is not with me, she lives somewhere,
Let's forget those, it's better we should move.
