Promises

I promise you ill make this right,
to fill our hearts with a yearning light.
And draw the darkness that sadness stole,
to cleanse the hatred from within our soul.

I promise you ill make this right,
and take back those longing nights.
Don't worry dear its meant to be,
look now so you can see,
the ember representing you and me.

I promised you id make this right,
trust me now, we've won the fight.
So take aim, and shoot the arrow,
I know now the path is narrow,
Never again will our love cease,
so relax my love, we found the peace.

Hi Sarah, your first poem is very comforting. , Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your way of writing. But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT"
