I promise

Promises are many, hard to keep, 

Often to be reminded, much too deep! 

I promise to be a better version of myself every day,

An effort for sure, but that’s what I pray. 

I promise to see a point of view that is not my own,

Learn something new and not be blown. 

I promise to be true to my heart,

Cherishing moments from the very start! 

I promise to be able to speak my mind, 

Rather than hoping others will be able to seek my worries and find.

I promise to learn to be open and be inspired,

While striving to inspire and be rightly admired.

I promise to find it in my heart to forgive and forget, 

Letting go may be a challenge, but I must let. 

I promise to admit I may be wrong along the way,

Make amends and learn before the end of the day. 

I promise to not judge on your past or present choice, 

Respecting them, inspite of the surrounding noise!

I promise to see you as your own person,

Not trying to mould you into my vision for certain. 

I promise that life cannot be taken for granted I know,

Moving slowly with gratitude and a mind to grow! 

I promise that there will be mistakes I will make, 

Be patient, I will correct them, so don’t forsake. 

I promise to be the keeper of hearts, 

Guarding every relationship that thrives in our life charts!

I promise that people will change and it’s much to accept, 

But every promise and word will be honoured and kept.
