What I Do for Love


Yes, I love you 

When I'm not with you I wish that I am 

You always know what to say

How to brighten my day

Becuase of you I am the person I am

You want me to be my true self

To be happy 

To be successful

I celebrate your success

The best version of you is unedited

Now you need to leave for reasons untold

I don't want you to leave

but this is what you need

Because I love you 

I dont want to pain you

I want you to have your freedom

the space that you need

that room to be yourself

if you ever need anything

 I am here for you

We will move on

live our lives

defined in ways that we choose

just as we do today

but apart

I will remember you when we part
