Nod
By Audrey_Star
I love you.
"let's promise each other,
right here and now,
that ten or twenty years down the line,
we will still be in love,
and always be honest with each other."
Even soul mates can get broken hearts.
"let's promise each other,
right here and now,
that ten or twenty years down the line,
we will still be together,
and never hurt each other."
Never become what you don't want to be.
"let's promise each other,
right here and now,
that ten or twenty years down the line,
we will never pass each other
with a nod."
Split down the center and ripped apart.
"let's promise each other,
right here and now,
that ten or twenty years down the line,
we will never make empty promises
and polite conversation."
People often go their separate ways.
"let's promise each other,
right here and now,
that ten or twenty years down the line,
we will never regret these things we've said
and the time we've had."
Engagement rings and proposals due.
"let's promise each other,
right here and now,
that ten or twenty years down the line,
we will never suck each other dry
with old feelings and old needs."
One walk down the isle later.
"let's promise each other,
right here and now,
that ten or twenty years down the line,
we will not be cautious about wedding news
and a new found love."
Congratulations.

This piece makes me wonder if promises still hold any value to the world. It seems a too perfect fantasy, which I admire. A dreamer's piece and nonetheless. Good work.
