Promises

by Aurialis

He promised me flowers....

And wild parties....

And kisses...

And a ring.

He promised me a cute house with picket fence...

And fat babies....

And sunset picnics....

And a long marriage.

He promised me bingo nights...

And lots of grand-kids...

And long walks....

And peaceful death together.

And I....

I just wanted.....

A passionate love that would burn the world around us.
