The Promise

Make me a promise then keep it or don't Whether you do means we will or we won't I have heard many they come and they go How often have I heard "I love you so" Tell me you love me and I will believe I see in your eyes that you can't deceive Though I admit that my eyes are some filled With all the hope that my love has instilled Life is long and the trials more than few But I can do this and do it with you Words we say now will echo tomorrow Let us choose joy and forego the sorrow Throw your caution to the devil's own wind Make me that promise and let us begin 5-27-20 Contest: The Promise
