I Will


Because I love you,

I will call you Dear,

I will let you yell too,

I will ignore my fears.

Because I love you,

I will hold in these tears,

I will smile for you,

I will call for help.

Because I love you,

I will not give you the beer,

I will not let you turn me blue,

I will leave.

Because I love you,

I will find someone new,

I will no longer cower in fear,

I will fianlly breathe.

Because I love you,

And you love me too,

I will move on,

I will not hide,

I will be my own person.

Because I love you,

I will be happy,

I will forget you,

I will finlly be free.
