the two of you
are my everything
and while i would
slay a dragon
to keep you safe
no matter how hard
i try i cannot
unstub your toe
i cannot prevent
a broken heart
or stop an illness
all i can do is
the only thing
i know without a
single solitary doubt
is within my power
and that is love you
through every new
and turbulent time

it’s so difficult
being a bipolar rock
cracked and shifting
while trying to
put on a strong front
to not fall apart
so you know you can
always turn to me
and i will support you
any and every way i can

i try
and i fail
so goddamned often
but you will never
learn to give up
from me
the winds steadily
erode the stone
but nothing can
ever change
my love for you

to the moon
and back
always
