promise

the heavens won't ever meet the land that stands between us

For the day the skies fall

Will be the day you promise to scold me the day you find me

If

you find me



I promise.



I promise

I will take your name and write it on every napkin that goes unused

so that when one goes to wipe their hands

they will feel the need to be served by you.



I said I promise.



come

listen

beloved



I said come.



Listen.



See a theme is no moral theme

but a ballet dance choreographed

a movie edited

a song rehearsed



like a promise

every vow one makes



I promise not to break my promise



and I have said it again

I promise



See a verbal theme takes you through the life

that years won't regret



but tell tale fables

rejecting life experiences



a verbal theme

makes an enemy take revenge



a verbal theme

convinces a best friend to stab you in the back



a verbal theme

makes a lover cheat



in every silken delicate and

Oh so sweet



I promise

I said I promise



Come listen

my beloved



I said come sit ya self down and listen



a verbal theme is an example of a promise

God made when He designed thee



a verbal theme is an engagement

a truce that shall not be broken

a validation of your uprisings

a vehicle that will take you through

the many perils

you will come to face

and if you remain stagnate

unfeeble minded

you will break through



and this

this.....

this .....



beloved I promise.
