A Collection of Poems

Promises, Promise Kept

Time spent with you.

Listening, laughing, crying.

Over the phone speaker.

Talking for hours.

Making promises with you.

Yours is mine,

I won't ever forget,

Any promises you ask.

Recorded questions you asked.

A war outbreak.

You asking to me,

"Don't join them,"

My dearest of all,

I will not.

May a outbreak war,

I will not—

All shall join them,

I will not.

My dearest of all

I will not,

To join military;

I will not.

For you, I stay.
