To wake up to your face I’d cure disease across the globe,

I'd find a way to alter the frontal lobe of those born to create war zones,

I'd strap on a yoke for those in need of help to feed the hun-gry,

I'd put you up on a pedestal and feed you fruit prepared by me.

And that would just be today; tomorrow I'd find other ways to show you how true my feelings are for you.

When you've had enough of that I'd settle just to stare at you all day and night and even in the afterlife.

I find this doesn't say enough about how up till now I've had to stuff my feelings into deep dark places to make it though the day and feel that I had a say about who owns my heart. I thought I was being smart.

No telling if it is or not but now the truth is out. When the day is done I'm happy I chose you to be the one that with out a doubt owns me inside and out.

I'll see in your eyes, when I wake, if you'd be the one to make my world come undone. Will it be a mistake when the sun comes up and I see that you've gone because everything that's going on is too hard for you to take?

Or will you stick around with me and be strong enough to catch the waves that come from far out at sea... in stride and not be intimidated by the tides? They'll ebb and flow... and have their way with us from time to time.

Could we be bound tightly enough to make it work albeit the natural pounding of the surf seems so never ending and strong?

So we brace each other’s backs and once we'd stolen rhythm on the tide we'd stack sacks of sand to make elbow room and space to breath and build the life we want and lack.

So wake up to me everyday with a promise that although we're destined to have an imperfect life, I'll accept it gladly ................if you stay
