Promise
Arghh! the sudden sight of spooky shadows!
They’re gone, I’ve dropped them window curtains
The PSAT scores are out next week
It’s just a test, don’t rack your brains
Morning showers stiff my bones
I’ll repair the geyser first thing tomorrow
Oh, those shooting pricks of vaccine syringes!
You can hold me tight, my pretty Avocado
About the dreary dawdling barefooted hikes?
We’ll stop if you wheeze, I dearly promise
And those dark skies and pitch black clouds?
Darling,the rains and rainbows would never hurt us
Are those cobwebs spun by hairy spiders?
Just a humble abode of daddy long-legs
Ah! fierce flashes of thunderclaps!
They’ll never reach you, now come to bed.
And those swarms of bees and stinging wasps?
Only if you trespass their tranquil tracks
Why do they have beastly rules at the office?!
To avert a revolt against the top dogs
Imagine stepping on a live wire in streets
The probability of that is one in lots
I got pulled into a perilous quicksand
Yes, you told me about that dream last night
I am scared of ambulances, speeding with sirens
You’ll calm down once I begin playing my Guzheng
Bulky bombs dropped on innocent children
Just close your eyes and picture a star
I always do, it gives me peace
What a cute bundle of nerves you are!
There’s one last fear I’ve always had
Talk to me frankly, you have my heed
Will you ever let me go?
Not in this lifetime, no,no no
And forget our love without a hitch?
Never will do,hey my heart’s with you!
You’ll stay with me forever then, promise?
Err….busy day tomorrow, now close your eyes.
Is that a promise?
Good night, good night, kisses and hugs.
You promise?
Zzzzz….
Promise?
