A promise I make
I should apply,
Never go back
And not reply.
A word I say
Is a promise to you?
But I don't know that this is true.
Each day words are said,
Some stick in your head
And some you forget.
Some taste as salt
And some as bread.
And some make you pay
All your dept.
A promise you take must be kept,
Where upon
You'll be dead.
If life is darling and sweet to you,
So fair and precious among all the things you do.
Keep your promise all the time with you
Before a word ruins your life instead
