Bald
Words
all for later.
And she thought
that a miracle will happen.
You told her –
your bald words,
words like checks without cover.
She was sure
it would be just like you promised.
She never dared to ask:
when will it be new?
Yet you
did not have any plans.
You knew
that you will not make change in your life!
