Everything

October 22, 2017

I asked you what she means to you,

'Everything.'

You're determined to prove everyday, that she's beautiful.

Even in her stubbornness,

you know how to pull her back.

'Because I love her.'

You stand by her,

even when she doesn't know how to fix things.

You open your own Pandora's box,

and trust her to keep your secrets.

'Because I love her.'

And when she got sick? Why did you stay?

Why did you fight her,

everytine a cigarette hit her lips?

'Because I loved her.'

'Love is knowing when to fight.

I promised to love her, even to her last breathe.

And when she lefted,

I vowed to show you what love truly is.'
