Elevan Promises

Elevan promises

I invited trusted friends to witness our day
People die and parish so I didn't not invite them
However social media is  the guests today
On this day I declare 11 promises to you 
I want Facebook to keep our memories for this day till the end of time. 

I promise to love you
My eyes will only gaze at you 
You will always be mine
My ears will only hear your sweet voice 
I'll be deaf to stranger's seductive voices
My hands will only touch you with love
They will never harm you
My feet will only walk the ground you're on
They will never leave to cheat on you
I'll chain my heart with your love confessions
I will fight temptation seeking to lead me astray

These are my promises 
I will never turn and do the opposite 
Perhaps you think I'm being romantic 
I'm not, it's just that my heart sing's your praises.
