I promise

From these lips, speak words of truth and how I feel

These lines below, I profess and reveal



Please let them sink into your mind, body & soul

In your heart entwined, hold them tightly and never let go



I promise to be your friend, to laugh throughout life & listen

The one to hold your hand in church, as the congregation says amen



I promise to give you all my energy, all my trust

Calm life's storm's as they arise & combust



I promise to bring contentment & bliss

Raise your chin, gently give a kiss



I promise to walk by your side, not in front or behind

Keep you smiling and help you unwind



I promise my feelings will never waver, never break

For you I stand forever, however long it may take



I promise to be the music in your life, both slow and quick

Cherish you in my arms, as I would lyric



These promises I speak, not just from my tongue but my heart

As you hear sounds from the pilot's chart, know nothing will set my love for you apart

Sonja is leaving for Paris in a few days, I plan on giving this to her and a promise ring before she leaves out
