I Promise

I promise you,
that I love you.
Imperfectly, maybe,
but completely.
Before you
I wandered unchained
and unbound
now I find myself
happy to know
that I will wake up
next to you
every single morning.

I promise you
that I won't leave
that you are safe
that we will grow
together, not apart.
I will hang the moon
where you tell me
and cause the sun to rise
where you wish
just to see gladness
light your dark eyes.

I promise too
I won't ask you to do
a damn thing you feel
you can't do,
so if you can't
wear a ring and swear
in front of a preacher
I am fine with that
but in my heart
I'll be your Mrs.
anyway.
