A Promise to keep: poem

 

A promise to keep

A dream i see

A moment i cherish

And a person, i wish to keep

The day we became

Entangle

Was the moment

Our lives began to dangle

Shattering broken 

Pieces of mirror

Forming new designs

Or so it seems

The lunar glow

Thats once shed it tear

Now seemingly smile

& look at me in flair

Once sitting silently 

Sky dancers at my window

Now singing sweet 

Melody nestling by my pillow

The winds may shift,
The seasons change,
Yet what we hold
Will never estrange

For even in shadows,
Your light I reap—
My vow remains firm,
A promise yet gentle to keep.
