What Promise

Tony36

What promise can you give me

What word can you say

To make me believe you love me

Not just wanting to throw my heart away.

 

Will you lift me up

To rise and know love once more

Or

Will you let me crash upon the rocks of life

Bleeding 

Dying

To live no more

 

I ask again 

What promise 

What word

What bond

Would make it worth to love you

    Hmm. I don't know, you've got me... aside from my sincere love and affection, I don't know what words to use to drive home and certify my faithfulness. Having feared since highschool that my future husband would divorce me, and likewise feared other drawbacks I'll spare you now, I suppose that's why I've never yet married. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting, driving poignancy. Thank you for sharing. [P.S. I initially commented, then thought to hit the "edit" option to delete the inevitable slash marks, I was shocked to find my fatigue deleted my original comment.]
