Empty Promises

Promises are empty
      without actions to pave
      the way towards trusting.


Are we not
      what we say, how we say it,
      and who we speak it to?


Worth is valued
      at zero in a repeating cycle
      of worthlessness


Just to be
    born again in a web
     that cannot be undone


As we lay
    witness to the pollution
    ability is not the solution


Much praise given
    to what we cannot see
    with listening hearts


As actions pave
    without a sense of purpose
    the mission has lost focus


Words are wasted
    on an audience not listening
    to any promises equating to…


NOTHING...
