14|Promises Are Made To Keep

There are times when I know you feel overwhelmed by the memories of past relationships and the wrong that they did you. They used you and didn't give a damn about you nor your feelings. They were with you for what they could get and they never repaid you in any way—financially or emotionally.

If anything, they added stress and hurt upon your life and it showed in your eyes. Your smile hid a lot of emotional pain and suffering, but anyone with the ability to see can tell that you were walking around with weight on your shoulders.

I'm thankful that you opened up to me that day, or you wouldn't be in a better situation today. Your future is now much clearer and you can rest easy knowing that a real man has your back. I may not be the age of too much maturity, but my mind has learned during my experience with others.

From the day we met, I promised that I would take good care of you and I intend to keep such a promise. You've been too much, more than me as well. I believe it's time that you get what you truly deserve and u will be the man to do so. That's why I go out of my way to show you all the love, affection, and attention you have never experienced in your life.

I'm not pretending to be anyone I'm not, so what you see is what you get and I have a lot up my sleeve, but u promise you, it's all good things that cater to you. Love is the most powerful thing in this world and no evil should be associated with it in any way possible.

Love is a gift, a weapon against hate, and the depiction of self. Love has to be accepted by others to make a difference. Hurt can easily be turned to hate if not dealt with immediately. Your being becomes heavy with the weight of the world and it can break your back while sending you into a frenzy of psychological trauma.

Promise we will stay together in love and happiness, for there will be nothing and no one that can tear us apart from each other. The days ahead won't always be calm, but the vessel we create to brace the storm shall be our saving grace. God put two hurt, but ambitious persons together, so that there shall be no more hurt invested in either of us ever again.

The world is a very treacherous place, not for the sake of the weak. We have to protect ourselves and our integrity anyway we can, since the purpose of the world is to separate and destroy any weakness that shows itself. Nothing that resides in love should be converted to hate by anyone or anything.

Persons who know or show love to any other human being is a gift from God himself. The chemistry you have with said person is what determines your future together and we have all the chemistry we could ever ask for out of this relationship.

They say, find something you love to do so that it never feels like a day of work and it applies to relationships as well. If you find someone you enjoy being with and love unconditionally, putting in the work will be second nature to you both.

Without you, I'm not sure what my life would be like and I can't allow such a great woman to walk free or away from me after everything I know about you. You have taught me a lot about myself and I love the reassurance you give to me on a daily basis.

All along I thought I was the problem, but in reality, I was just a victim of a manipulative woman who tried to bend me to her will. Thank God, there was a small crack in the wall she built around our relationship, that was big enough for me to see the truth outside of the lies and deceit.

It all happened in such a miraculous way, that as soon as I had gotten wind of things, you came along and saved me from everything that I have been going through. In return, I vowed to save you from your situation as well. Getting to know the individual I was involved with would take some time—and starting over was one of my biggest fears in my past relationship, but look at me now facing my fears and realizing that there was nothing to be afraid of in the first place.

I owe it all to you and your love you smother me with. You may be older, but I have enough experience to share with you on a deeper level once you allow me to. So far so good and I don't want to blight such a good thing, so I keep myself out of certain company as to avoid being caught in a web of innocent infidelity of which I would only realize too late.

You're an individual that never looks back and I can honor that, but it will hurt like hell if I lose you to my own foolish ways that I thought I had gotten rid of years ago. So today I promise you the total honesty and love of my being to be relentlessly perfect to my own standards and also to be witnessed by you on a larger scale as opposed to others before you.

If it's greatness they need to see, I'll show them all the way greatness is supposed to affect an individual after just moments of exposure to such a heavenly attribute. You'll never love another man like me again in this life nor the next. I promise you all from this day forward—if I haven't before, and I promise you that you'll never find another man to show you the things I have and will continue to show you.
