I Will


Because I love you,

I will

Give you my shoulder when you need me

Means wet clothes and salty cheeks, see

 

Because I love you,

I will

Push back when you hurt me

See, there’s a balance here to keep

 

Because I love you

I will

Stay open and honest and ask for help

Else, we fall apart, make a little personal hell

 

Because I love you

I will

Offer my entire heart and love you

So, I hope that I get the same back, too

 

Because I love you

I will

Watch that movie you love for the fifth time

I’m sick of it but love it, so be kind

 

Because I love you

I will

Work with you to make you better

But, work with me so I can better, too

 

Because I love you

I will

Do what’s best for the both of us

Trust, is the hardest part, but we must

 

Because I love you

I will

Let you go if I’m too much

But, only if that’s what you want

 

Because I love you
