Promise ♥


I'll hold you tight and never let go.

I'll rest my arm around you as we fall asleep under the stars.

When we wake up, I'll wish you a good morning and tell you how extraordinary you are.

When it gets chilly outside, I'll wrap my sweater around your shoulders.

I'll give you the world, even if it takes a lifetime.

I'll do that for you.

We'll reminisce over mugs of hot coffee, shaken with nostalgia. 

We'll let time get the best of us,

and after we're tired; exhausted and fatigued, 

I'll walk you home in the moonlight, guarding you from the looming shadows.

I'll always be here for you. 

I'll love you endlessly, darling. 

I promise.

    I love your poetry, it makes mine look like a kindergartner scribbling on a wall.

    1. Thank you, Shelby. :D What's funny is, the idea for this came to me out of nowhere. It's funny how unplanned thoughts can be so beautiful sometimes. xx

    2. It's funny, I'm so use to looking up to others for inspiration, that I find it quite odd that someone might do the same for me. What an honor. :)
