Promises

Brie

I can't promise you perfection

I can't promise you forever

I can promise you love

I can promise you happiness 

Some say the best promises are the ones you can't keep

For me, the best are the ones you can

I can't promise you lies, 

Only because I promise you truth 

I can't promise you betrayal, 

Only because I promise you loyalty

I'd never break these swears

I promise you that

Will you keep yours?

These aren't vows

These are words that hold us together 

Vows are for forever 

And like I said, 

I can't promise you forever
