PROMISES
©October 23 1997 by Bongo Bear
 

Promises should never be
wishes that cannot be granted.

Promises should never be
desires that go unfulfilled.

Promises should never be
dreams that cannot come true.

Promises should never be
an empty heart's longing
for the unattainable.

Promises should never be
made to those you love,
but cannot love.

If the end is
nothing but heartbreak,
then the
promises should never be.
