Tell me what you think, it's part of my coursework
Dedicated to a girl named Andzela. <3
I look around me, see couples Falling out of love Breaking up Moving on Pretending That they don't care about each other Anymore.
What a lie- I know What's truly on their minds Let's be free, they think Let's not be us Just you and then There's me.
Everyone wants to play Party- look away From how they really feel What they really want to say I know There are still "I love you"s Backed up, ready, bursting, shushed.
I look around me and think Am I so wrong To want to stay With my lover for longer? To want to work hard And someday be together Her in my arms again- I will wait For her. Am I different?
Is our love stronger? Are we stupid? Or rather, Are we smarter? Why give up something so great So beautiful, rare- fate Why throw it away?
All relationships that end With a selfish need To be free- of "constraints"- Were meant to last, I think. But me, I hold hope I stand true to my woman, Stand by her Hand in hand Until someday, when we Will finally be sitting on our porch Watching the sunset- coffee mugs But filled with tea Laughing, talking, remembering the days When we chose to fight For each other- To stay together To Love only one another. Because I will stand true to my woman. I will take my chance with fate, I will show the world That you can be free Even when your heart belongs To a lover.
