I cannot promise you an undying love or an unbroken past. I cannot promise that this life or love of ours will remain the same as what it is in this very moment. I cannot promise you unspoken words to mend what you were left behind with. There are dark places you’ve been; the type of places that cannot be unseen. We were kids who had to grow up too quickly, stripped of our innocence. I cannot promise you flowers, chocolates, adventures, and star lit skies on every night. There’s going to be days when it feels like this never ending storm is thrusting at our home, pulling doors off their hinges and damaging the rooftop one tile at a time. I cannot promise you that we will have more easy days than rain filled days. But I can promise you this. I promise to never stop loving every inch of your body, your soul, your humor, your loving personality. I promise to never hold the truth from you because if there’s one thing that can kill; it’s being lied to from the one person you trusted. I promise to never belittle you because if you want to achieve something I’ll be your number one fan screaming at the top of my lungs. Telling you to keep on pushing, to keep on going, and I will be there to hold you at the finish line and tell you “I knew you could do, baby, I swear I knew you could do it.” I promise to go on crazy adventures with you, to get in the car and just go. There needs to be no destination because as long as I have you by my side anywhere in this world, will feel like home. I promise to try my best to make you smile more than to ever shed a tear because of me. I promise to never lay in the bed of another and if there is ever temptation there then I have failed at loving you, entirely. I promise to never grow too old to pick you up in my arms and twirl you around our living room floor. I will never grow too old to jump off a mountain cliff, or try new foods of which I cannot pronounce the names of. I promise to always make crude jokes that will make you punch me in my ribs and tell me how immature I am but still know you love me with the look you give me with your light brown eyes. I promise to always learn with you, to go to classes, seminars, job interviews, social gatherings, political debates, to always evolve to a better person. I promise to never forget our first kiss or how my knees shook on our first dance. I promise to never abuse you with condescending words, to never lay hands on you, or ever think of hurting you. I promise to always protect you and if we were ever homeless I'll build you a fort with the jacket off my back; so you may never forget that for you I’d give up my last everything. I cannot promise you that it’ll be perfect or even close to it, but I promise to never abandon you and to love you more tomorrow than I did today.
To my best friend, my love, my reason, my happiness
