I like funny girls and serious girls too
Girls who do crosswords and work at the zoo
I like girls on bicycles and girls who wear hats
Girls who ride horses and girls who keep cats
I like girls with glasses and girls with tattoos
Girls with pierced noses and girls who read the news
I will make promises that I cannot keep
(heroic promises)
I will break promises that I do not remember making
(forgotten promises)
I will fake promises that I have no intention of fulfilling
(political promises)
I will make promises to myself which I will never articulate
(hidden promises)
I will promise you the earth in this moment and mean it with all my heart, even if I know my promise can never be realised
(impossible promises)
I will promise you anything if you give me what I want right now
(dirty promises)
I will promise you anything if you stop hurting me right now
(desperate promises)
I will promise to love, honour and obey you till death do us part
(contractual promises)
I will promise you my eternal soul if you open up your pearly gates
(sacred promises)
I will promise to pay the bearer on demand the sum of one dollar
(devalued promises)
I am lying on the bed watching you in front of the mirror
Putting on your earrings and fixing up your hair.
Where did your hairbrush go, my love?
I cannot find it anywhere.
What happened to your hair?
What became of your face and your lovely smile?
Your eyebrows and eyelashes?
