For you


For you, I would capture the sunrise Contain it in a jar and close the lid Forever glowing in our reach To open to the world again When were ready to awake For you, I would cross the deep oceans Discover unmarked land and claim it as our own Map it in secret for only us to know Surrounded by the purest of water And the freshest of air For you, I would sacrifice sleep Just to lie awake with you and contemplate life Gaze at the stars for hours on end Saying plenty of words Or none at all Yes, these things I would do, But only for you

This poem was inspired by my first love. There is nothing else that could compare to your first love, and this is what i wanted to say about that.
