Echoes of promises

I tread ahead ,
With no destination in sight,
I stared hard ,
At the path I knew my heart ,
But the familiar sight no longer stiring my heart.

I stared at the trees,
Who have now shed it's leaves,
I looked blankly at the boundless ,pale sky,
With a smile wry.

Sheding a silent tear,
I remembered the promise I made,
" always together forever ,my love "
Now only the whispers of the promise were left ,
Resounding through the empty path ahead,
But the other person was long gone ,
Only leaving behind his footsteps
on the path
we have trod on together for long.
Now with only some memories left
I tread ahead into the unknown.
