For You

It seems I'm always there for you, but you're never there for me.

If you need something

I’ll get it.

If you want something

I’ll do it.

Anything.

Anything for you.

I would

Die

For you.

 

I would take away

Your pain

Force it upon

Myself

Hundred-fold.

For you.

 

I would grieve for you.

Smile for you.

Run a million miles

For you.

 

What would you do for me?

Would you take

A bullet?

Like I would

For you?

Would you rush to my aid

If I needed

Your help?

As I would

For you?

 

No.

You wouldn’t.

Because I

Am the strong one.

Yes, I

Am the one

With all the

Answers.

 

But I don’t want them

I would forget

Everything

If it meant

I could have someone

Who cared

For me

As I care

For you.

Amazing! I've felt just like that for someone and still do. Great job. :)

Real love is sharing all the good times and the bad each supporting the other as and when they need support. Neither holds all the answers.

[Coyote Poetry]

Real love is when we give all we have. Sometime we want equal time in the emotion of love and need. I like the poem. The beginning words were very good. I like the questions in the poem. The questions need to be answered to create a binding relationship. A excellent poem.
