Promises - like the kind you make in a meadow, surrounded by friends and a sea of yellow flowers
Hearts - on fire or at least hot enough to keep us warm on a winter's night
Secrets - nothing dangerous or severe, like what we bought for Christmas and can't wait to see you open
Wishes - these are mostly for tomorrow, but we reserve the right to have some for yesterday as well
Dreams - the ones that woke us up from a deep sleep, as well as the ones that kept us deep in slumber
Hopes - for a change to come, and for things to remain the same
Fears - of a change that will come, or that things will remain the same
Nights - by the sea, in the mountains, through the trees
Mornings - sometimes early, sometimes late, but always by your side
Days - So many now that we have stopped keeping track
Treasures - the kind you keep in a box or the ones behind your eyes
House - the one that we share, the one where we live, the one we come back to
Songs - in our hearts and in our minds, and sometimes right out loud
Stories - the ones we tell everyone and the ones we only tell one another
Love - alive and well, though contents may have shifted during shipping
Vows - that whole cherish and devotion type thing
Together - You and me. For keeps.
I ❤️ being a kept woman
