Because I love you


i will always catch your tears.

and i will never disappear.

 i will take your scars,

 make them my own, and when i walk you home,

i will hold your umbrella while you sing to

 the pouring rain and the bitter cold, and i will make you tea when

you've had a rough day, and paint you a mural to illume

the shadows out of your eyes. I will fight all your wars and 

protect you from all your enemies, including yourself.

 that is what you do for people who live in your heart.

Because i love you.
