vows
Learn more about other poetry terms
she's down to the earth
am up for the moon
she put her life into it
but i wont take what i can't give
The rush of your love is like a wave,
And your touch is one that I always crave.
I know inside I have to be brave,
And think of the future we’re going to pave.
Every second I want to savor,
I, a confused somebody in the here and now, vow to:
never rush this
to be the reason why you feel like you're at home
to be by your side no matter where life takes us
to remember this
You can dream of all the vows you wish to sing
But if you recall on that fine evening
Emily ascended into the darkness of the night
For she had finally been free
A promise is a contemptible thing
Whether by word or pen or diamond ring
Because most promises come from a foolish bloke
Whose lips before his mind have spoke
All promises root in an abstract idea
For better or for worse,
Lovers pass.
In sickness and in health,
Lovers pass.
The seasons seem to change with the people,
Not the other way around.
We’re all just floating along in this mistaken world,
Before you, my heart was failing. I couldn’t breathe, see, or feel. I was on the verge of dying before I met you. As soon as I saw you walk through those hospital doors, I knew you were the medicine I so badly needed to survive.
