Promise (Our Story)

Do you remember November? 

You rushed out, in a hurry, spontaneous 

flurry And you were in my arms

It was instant, hit me like a brick

Chemistry took over me 

Cuddles, chaos, laughing and living 

in a bright, blissful world

I watched you eat in Burger King

- it's not a metaphor - yet I adored

watching you scoff, gulp, chew Chow down

You chose onions and became self conscious! 

Back in the black of our apartment

We first touched in that way and wow,

what wonder as I began to blunder,

beg and beckon to God - to see the treasures of his work

Well, we strolled along,

think you sang songs and clutched my 

arm - not a moment passed without you

my lass, being firmly latched 

The bars we frequented for our drinks,

I saw something more than vision in the dim

light; something of your heart felt nature

And I knew that I had wandered

long enough

January came and in some ways it was the same

but in others we were building; see

you had met my good friends

And saw the bonds that made me

We sipped coffee in sweet cafes

and crunched on Mexican breakfast

Buy me that notebook! 

But know this, love, each day does pass

and I want more of our story

Step by step, with each other
