For You


 

 

For you

I will sacrifice all.

My own preferences,

My personal comfort,

My safety and security.

Because I love you

These I will give for you.

Will you?

 

For you

I will always be there.

My dreams, they can wait,

My plans secondary.

My place is wherever you are.

Because I love you

I will give these up too.

Will you?

 

For you

I will never set aside,

My morals or standards,

My stand on purity.

My love does not these compromise.

Because I love you

In these I will not move.

Will you?

 

For you

I will strive to be great,

My anger, control

My harsh words, swiftly curb,

My strength to protect and support.

Because I love you

This I will strive to do.

Will you?

 

For you

I will give all my love.

My place beside you,

My heart, yours forever.

My life, for you till time ceases.

Because I love you

To this will I hold true.

Will you?
