Promise Me...
The numbness my body gets
When the image of you floats into my thoughts
You take me to a place I’m terrify to go
Never thought I could have this
Delightful sensation
Promise me
Like every breath you take
Not with your pinky
You will never stop Arranging your words
To make something so complicated
Uncomplicated
Promise me
You could never go on your journey in life
Without having an infatuation for my smile
I need your desire for my trust
To go beyond the rhythm of your body
To the depth of your soul
My finger discover every scare
On your arm while
My brain longs for the hurt in your eyes
To remain there when you explain to me
Where life took your mind
And the world took your body
Place your hand a pond my wrist
And feel my pulse arise
When you touch me so simply
Because with every hug and kiss
You snatch every bit of strength
It takes to hold up the foundation
To my bottomless thoughts
You captured my mind With the truth
No matter how difficult
You confessed every sin and
You challenged me to forgive and accept you
For the words you spoke
And the actions you committed
So when I ask you to catch my heart
Promise me not with a ring
But with your trust
You won’t let it hit the ground
