I won't die for my love
Every lover has made this promise
But not me
I can't promise you I'll die for you
Not because I cant
Everyone who loves, can offer their lives
So it's not because I can't die for you
Its because I want to LIVE for you
I want to live for you
Through every hardship
Every bad day
Every thought of insignificance
Every urge to reach an end
I want to live
Fight to survive
So I can be there when you need me
To be the shoulder you can cry on
To be the one to share your joy with
To hold your hands when you reach new heights
And hug you tight when you fall
To be with you through every moment
Moments of joy, sorrow, memories and lessons
For this I want to survive
Through every threat life may serve
Through every pit of darkness unending
I want to have courage and will to survive
And live even when death feels like a reward
So I could give you love as my FINAL breath
But rather I'd love you with EVERY breath
(First poem I wrote in more of a freeform with no structure or pattern, would love to get some feedback)
