It's day three: i decided to look at the prompt on the NaPoWriMo site which was "Family Portraits." This is what came out of that prompt.
The painful fray of time
Unravels to its end
Caught in the undertow of broken promises
And dreams halved by distance and discord
Resolute in their agony
The air crisp with animosity
freedom brokered in the chaos of discontent
bartered in silent glances and swollen expectations
and the confines of this prison they once knitted themselves to becomes an uneasy alliance of solitude
no longer stifled
no longer obligated to the pretence of happy
Dissolution is the solution
And we, once family, remain
in tatters
in unison of division
Shards of what we were
