We receive many promises in life
Which are made not for keeps,
Though they are made
With the warmest hugs and kisses.

You have very rightly said so, @Suresh Kumar Ek. Thanks for visiting and sharing your thoughts.
Unkept promises of life! ! ! ! Musing along; Able to stand the struggles of life. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
@Edward Kofi Louis, Thanks for visiting and leaving a kind comment.
A supreme quality which any person may possess to live happily is forgive and forget. It is not easy but at some point in time one should realise that it is a baggage we carry unnecessarily.10**** Though they linger in our minds Much longer than the love lasts, Those should rather be forgotten Than thought over, over and over.
Thanks for quoting my lines, @M Asim Nehal. 'at some point in time one should realise that it is a baggage we carry unnecessarily.' - Indeed you have rightly said so. Much inspired by your generous rating of the poem.
Sometimes, in life, things are happen beyond our control. Most often, promises are never kept. The best way is to forget about it. And also forgive the persons who could not keep the promise. Move on with pure thoughts of love alone....... Thank you Khairul Sahab for these sublime thoughts.......Beyond the stars....
@Geeta Radhakrishna Menon, Your kind thoughts have inspired me a lot. You have rightly said, 'The best way is to forget about it. And also forgive the persons who could not keep the promise. Move on with pure thoughts of love alone.......'. - Your thoughts are sublime too, which I very much appreciate.
We ought to forget yes, ought to forget the unrequited love! but Love is love there is not any exchange love is pure in its existence it only can offer love knows no how to hate, avoid or forget!
At some point in time we realize, We ought to have forgotten Those promises, as because Those were not meant for keeps......so true. Unless we forget we can't happy.. A beautiful poem on unrequited love is well executed. Five stars.
'Unless we forget we can't happy...' - You have rightly said so, dear poet @Kumarmani Mahakul. Thanks for the kind comment and the generous rating!
This poem goes into my fav list. Unrequited love is painful indeed. The Promises which never saw the light should be forgotten.5***
Thank you Aarzoo, and my gratitude for taking this poem to your 'MyPoemList'. 'The promises which never saw the light should be forgotten.' - True, they ought to. Appreciate the kind comment and the generous rating.
We are all human and it is only human to forget the promises we made once or the promises made to us. Don't brood over the broken promises! They will only destroy our peace of mind! It is better to forgive those who couldn't keep their promises and move along! A practical tip to be happy in life!
Thank you @Valsa George, for analysing my poem in such a beautiful way and leaving such an apt inference. I am much, much inspired, dear poet.
