Zero Commitment

Please, don't take my sadness for sorrow

Instead cherish today and its promise

For I cannot promise you tomorrow 

Though many anecdotes we borrow

The impending end brings no solace

Please, don't take my sadness for sorrow

And into the late nights we burrow

Though our conversation seems flawless

I cannot promise you tomorrow 

You pierce me like a gilded arrow

And look sheepishly as if you were Adonis

Please, don't take my sadness for sorrow

In the late nights I bellow

Wishing I could finally be honest

But I cannot promise you tomorrow 

As I leave to the borough

I leave behind your serene calmness

Please, don't take my sadness for sorrow

For I cannot promise you tomorrow
