I'll Be Yours to Keep


I could look at your face until day turns to night.
I would bring  you the moon and stars if you only asked.
Your smile makes my heart collapse.
I remember this love, only once before, but you have added fuel to the fire.
There is nothing, nothing on this Earth that could keep me from you.
There is no length I would not go, no obstacle to great.
You, little one, have my heart.

I break knowing that one day you will experience pain,  or feel loneliness, or the slightest hint of sad.
I know you will be strong, I know you will be great.
You my love, will always be my world.
I will do my best, I will make mistakes.
But I will never leave you to doubt the insurmountable depth of my love for you.
You can have my every breath.
