A Promise


A promise is a wonderful thing One can promise to be early One can promise no more fights One can promise that they will turn out alright One can promise happier times One can promise different ways One can promise that they’ll try So they won’t part ways One can promise to love, to cherish, to hold Until both of them are senile and very, very old One can promise many things But promises are easily broken Actions speak louder than words So let them be the ones spoken
