Love: These I can Promise and Love

By Victoria Mattox 

I cannot promise you a life of sunshine 
I cannot promise you riches, wealth, or gold 
I cannot promise you an easy pathway 
That leads away from growing old 

I can promise a lot of change 
Even though it may seen strange 
I cannot promise you eternal life 
Because it might seem like 
you are getting stabbed with a knife!! 

But I can promise all my hearts devotion 
A smile to chase away your tears of sorrow 
a hand to hold in yours though each tomorrow

Love is something you cherish 
It is nothing you should perish 

Love from me to you 
Is like a dream come true 

Love is not a game
