I Promise

I promise  
I promise to love you deeper than the Atlantic Ocean 
I promise to adore you higher than the Killimanjaro mountainous romise to care for you more fragile than a wine glass 
I promise to keep you closer than my attitude 
I promise that our love will be stronger than a wine of Johnny Walker 
No matter the highway is too risky,the E_toll gates so many I promise to go nor travel the long distances for you 
I may not promise you the Heavens nor the Earth for I don't have the power to 
I might not buy expensive gifts for you to prove my love 
I may not promise you my life for I need it to keep on loving you 
I may not promise you the 100% of my love for if I Love you 100% and you also love me 100% it'll be 200% which is impossible, so I promise to love you 50% and expecting you to meet me halfway by loving me 50% so our love will be 100% stable
I don't mind repeating the words I love you each and every second,every minute every hour every day every month every year,every decade and every century 
My love for you is real no need for a prophetess nor a prophet to prophecy it
I promise to be like a patron and patronise you in each and ever way
Believe me when I say I promise to keep my promises 
Because I promise
