A Promise

Do not simply promise someone 
If you're not sure of the outcome
Not ruling out the possibility of unexpected circumstances
Not ruling out the limit of your ability
A promise is not made to be broken
It's  made to be fulfilled
It's made to light up people's heart
It's made to help those in need
And so don't ever 
Simply make too many promises 
Before you ask the permission from God
Before you ask a promise from God

I have read several of your poems and find them insightful like Confucius' writings.
