Analysis of My promise



This is my promise,
I'll come back to you
again and again
Until I can fulfill
my every wish.

I'll n't beg you to
wait for me.
I'll not entreat you
Kneeling on knee.

If then you will
turn down your face.
I'm ready to stand long
with hopeful gaze.

I know I love you
From my heart core.
I'll not claim you
which is due.

About this poem

This is my promise, I'll come back to you again and again Until I can fulfill my every wish. I'll n't beg you to wait for me. I'll not entreat you Kneeling on knee. If then you will turn down your face. I'm ready to stand long with hopeful gaze. I know I love you From my heart core. I'll not claim you which is due.
