I need you to promise me something.
Promise me that you will never leave your heart
in the palms of a man
who has not made his purpose for you clearer than your grandmother's bathroom window
Promise me that who you love
will never be more important than the love you have for yourself
You cannot give shelter to others
if you do not have a home of your own
Promise me that you won't settle
No matter how little your job pays
no matter how small your apartment is
You are one good man away from being treated like a queen
No matter where on earth your castle is
and despite every man who broke your heart
may their karma and your peace
be God allowing them the pleasure
of receiving front row tickets to your rebirth.
