I could write...
by *ghostloveI could write the typical love song - you know the one,
of minds merged, souls converged, of loveseats and heartbeats,
of rose blossoms and gold, 'to have and to hold';
I could repeat sentiments, far too often told.
I could write a lyrical love song - one made for a tune,
for wedding dances, longing glances, hot romances;
for love found or lost, for lovers star-crossed,
I could sing a song which would move you, at most.
I can't write with innocence, this is no light affair.
Won't promise the stars, I can only reach so far.
I'm not a fortress, no hero, I can't save your soul
Your every happiness isn't in my control.
I can't write with absolute conviction, I can't
promise there'll be no friction, restriction
I can't give you the earth, I'm one human being,
and with love and its cohorts there's no guaranteeing.
What I will do, is love you the best way I can;
To raise you, amaze you, enthral and daze you,
To be here forever, through every endeavour,
To be with you always, wherever, however.
What I will do is be there through all of life's blows,
To hold you and shield you from misfortune's woes,
Stay truthful, stay faithful, stay loyal and true,
Show you trust eternal and let love's light shine through.
Rules are like paperclips: meant to keep things together, fun to bend, and easily twisted out of shape.
