The Promise

But promise me that the day you realise
The fiery spark in your heart isn't igniting,
Or the butterflies in your stomach cease to flutter,
You'll tell me you no longer love me,
That the love we once shared is obsolete.
Just promise you'll tell me
When I hear the sirens call out to me,
And I see the white ahead,
I'll be free of all the things I thought would be better left unsaid.
