The way we can stay up till 5 am
kissing and talking and touching
like you were never upset with me
is how I know I can love you forever.
We all make mistakes, but mine were unforgivable.
And yet, you somehow found the will to
forgive me and my selfishness.
And I love you for not only that
but for being yourself
And for trusting me when I deserved anything but
you letting me back into your heart.
I promise to hold your hand and to kiss your lips
and I promise to love you as we grow old
and as we both reach the gates of Heaven.
Something tells me that our love will
find a way to stay alive through the
many years ahead of us,
and to dear God I better not ever
hurt you like that again.
Because hurting you is worse than
hurting myself.
Hurting you was truly the worst feeling
I've ever experienced...
I don't think you nor I could take
my mistakes happening ever again.
So my beautiful, darling girl,
I promise to not hurt you
as long as you promise me
that you'll stay strong
and just as in love with me
as you are right now.
