These things I promise I will do

________, these things I promise I will do That life may grant you ample grace Because I love and cherish you: I vow to treasure what is true That I might touch whom I embrace: These things I promise I will do. I'll build a garden in your view that with sweet fruit will stone replace because I love and cherish you. I vow to love each day anew, for love must dance through time and space: These things I promise I will do. I vow to make your terrors few and then with you those demons face because I love and cherish you. And now, as we make one of two, a passage we cannot retrace, these things I promise I will do because I love and cherish you.

  • I love it.

    Any vow that is written with good faith and sincerity should be honored and respected first and foremost.

    To me, a vow or pledge should be meant wholeheartedly, if you have expectations or needs say them because that is the clearest way to represent you.
    Do not say it if you do not mean to follow through with such words with all that you are able.
    Now.
    For the comment regarding demons.
    Yes, it is "real" talk, the way this author depicted that their mate face and help to destroy any demons along side and or for them.
    I am at total odds as to why would you not be willing to defend and protect your mate and best friend?
    In the event that troubles and or a "demon" in this case arrive, I would defend my partners life with every breath that I hold dear in my lungs. And I would expect the same in return.
    Anything less and then you might as well focus on pre ups and just steal someone else's vows because you do not seem to comprehend the sanctity and honor of being privileged to defend your mate and bowing to do such into words.

  • I Like It

    The punctuation distracts and breaks up what is being said. If you get it lined out right and listen to what is being said, the sentiment is beautiful. A poetic heart speaks without regard to punctuation--

  • ha this is rediculous

    Really?? If my husband has demons im gonna run for the hills and hope he doesnt follow... I want vows that are going to talk about growing old together and falling in love all over again when dealing with life on lifes terms isnt going easy and to learn to live as one and to be faithful in a society that says sleeping around is ok... I just dont know how to word it other than ill love you when you start sagging and i wont be a slut lol not very good termonology but atleast its real
