"Give in to love, or live in fear."


Do you promise to love me?
Under any terms?
To be with me forever,
Wherever I go?

Do you promise all you have?
Every hug and every kiss?
To share with mine,
And loving together as one?

Do you promise to try for us?
To not just give up?
Will you work with me together,
To give our young family a better life?

Do you promise to never leave?
Never to abandon your wife or kids,
To share your love everyday,
So that we can trust you'll love us forever?

Do you promise to stay with me,
For rich or for poor?
In sickness and in health?
Till death do us part?

Before you ask for my hand,
Do you promise to love me?

The author's comments:
I got the inspiration for this poem from an actual situation. My boyfriend asked me to marry him and I was really worried about if he was actually serious and knew what he was asking so I came up with this one day. I just hope people enjoy it and maybe it will influence their outlook on relationships.
