I Do It For Her

I lay may hands over her ears so she can't listen to the harsh words people say to her.

I place my forehead on hers and hold her gaze so she can't witness the horrors of the world around us.

I rap my arms around her waist so if she goes anywhere, she'll take me with her.

I rest my head on her chest so I can hear her steady heart beat, and let it calm my senses.

I curl my fingers around her wrists so I can feel her pulse, and know she's okay.

I hold her from behind to silently assure her, "I'll always have your back".

I kiss her cheek to press away the tears that form when I'm not good enough for her.

I pull her into me when she's sleeping to keep her safe from the monsters lurking in the darkness.

I hum to her when she's falling asleep to chase away the demons and nightmares in her heart.

I play with her hair to feel the its softness and make the clouds envious of it.

I dance with her to make her smile and to give her a night like those in fairy tales.

I never tell her she's wrong because there's no way she could ever be.

I tell her she's perfect, because there's no better word that could ever describe her.

I help her with her make up and don't add any, because she doesn't need an ounce.

I let her read to me to hear the sereneness of her voice, and how it sounds like magic.

I stare into her eyes to see every piece of color and just how magnificent they are.

I dangle her things over her head so I can kiss her when she jumps up at me.

I give her gifts but tell her every second that she deserves nothing less than the world.

I obey my superiors, but know that she's my only ruler, my princess, my queen.

I listen to her every second, for I dare no waste a sound wave her vocals create.

I spent every moment I can with her, knowing she's the only thing that makes my life worth living.

I never wake without her because she's the light from the sun that commands me to rise.

I always do what she asks of me, for she only asks for the good of everyone and myself.

I always smile at her, because I can't help it when I'm near the goddess of joy.

I always tell her I love her, because it's the only statement in my head that's undeniably true.

The End.
