RIVERS AND ROADS.


I will walk through the darkest road, and I will cross the shakiest river. 

I will go through the thickest forest. 

For you my dearest, I will become your florist. 

For you, I will become an artist. 

I’ll put on my pink beret and my finest garment. 

I will pluck the finest rose for you every morning without a warning ‘cuz nothing brings me more joy than to see you happy.

I will walk through the darkest road, and I will cross the shakiest river. 

I will wrestle the strongest tiger in the jungle. 

For you, I will do, even if I stumble. 

I’m willing to go through the extra mile just to make you smile. 

I will walk through the narrowest road like a toad, to help you with your load. 

I will cross that river even if Thunder and lightning forbids it. 

For you, I will shiver. 

I will go on every journey, even if it gets stormy ‘cuz you’re worthy. 

I will build an army to protect you. 

In a heartbeat, I will go through bitter, sweet.

Build you shelter for the heat, make sure you never sweat.

I will walk in the dark, even if the dogs bark.

I will swim across that river despite my fear of sharks just to get to the other side, and I will jump on every ride, just to have you by my side.
