If you promise not to hurt me
I'll give you all I have
Don't you dare desert me
That'll only make me mad

Never break the circle of trust
It will merely make me angry
When in doubt, shout out loud
You know that drives me crazy

Turn in your keys when you're done
Be sure to lock the door behind you
Take all of your belongings
I ought not have to remind you

I'll be waiting with open arms
For your anticipated return
Nonjudgmental looks of censure
Only unyielding concern

That you return back to me safely
Unscathed or worse for wear
Humbled, yet aware
Till our love is mended and repaired

I've only ever aimed to please you
Bring you joy where there was none
Day to night and night to day
Under moon, the stars, and sun

I promised to provide for you
Protect you from all harm
But nothing ever seems to go as planned
It's what gives life it's charm

Mutually agreeing
No battle to be won
No making up excuses
What took forever to get done

There's a sensible explanation
Why things are the way they are
No boundaries or obstacles
Could make me feel I've gone too far

The end from our perspective
Maybe a minute, week, or years
It's unknown what's in store for us
Don't be suppressed by fear

Spread your wings and fly my bird
Embark on dreams set way too high
As you soar up into the open sky
Happy you're alive.
