A Politician's Promise

A promise that isn't kept isn't a vow, 
It's a bandaid of words, stops the bleeding for now.
Empty phrases don't always grow great expectations,
they are visions of could have beens, chance revelations. 
Words still have meaning, despite what is said,
but the meanings can change on their way to your head.
Sometimes what is spoken is not what is vowed,
it's a desperate attempt at appeasing the crowd.
