I meet him when I was young
I meet him when I was broken, abused and scared
I meet him when he was cold, merciless, and evil
But he saw me, he saw the pain and the love, he saw me
I saw him, I saw the good and the hope, I saw him
Everyone warned me, about him
He warned me about him
He tried to get rid of me, told me he was no good
But it was too late he became my life, he became me.
Except I fell for the wrong guy
My family disowned me
My friends left me behind
But he was worth it, because he was there
He gave me a family, he gave me his family
He gave me his friends
His gang
His house
His heart
I fell for the guy that everyone said not to
I fell for the guy who wasn't suppose to love
I fell for the guy that was suppose to hurt me
Everyone said not to but I did
Everyone said he couldn't love me but he did
Everyone said he would hurt me but he didn't
He saved me, he fought for me, he killed for me
The law called him a criminal, I called him a hero
I was a queen, never treated less
And him?
He was my king, my life, my hero, my worth it man
The man I would bleed for, cry for, die for
The man I would give it all for, my worth it man
We had it all, we had the life
He had his gang, and they ran the whole continent
I had my man, my second family.
And then I got it
My second worth it man
My own family, our family
I gave him what he wanted the most, a baby
And boy was my man a good dad
We had it all, a kid, a house, a family
My second worth it man, boy was he the best
Kind, nice, strong, independent
One creation that got the good in the both of us
My baby was the accomplishment I am the proudest of
Then it hit me
The plague, cancer
And my 2 worth it men, they broke
My son didn't want to lose his mom, my man didn't want to lose his girl
I didn't want to lose either
My man had to watch me, had to watch me whither away, had to watch me suffer
And he couldn't help me
The one monster he couldn't protect me from
And it killed him
It ate him up, he was devastated
And to see him like that because of me, killed me, it ended me, devastated me
Never did I think I would be the one
They said he would leave me
They said he would hurt me, kill me
They said he would break me
But it was the opposite, I would leave him
I would hurt him, kill him
I would break him
All because of cancer
But he stayed, he loved me, he made me sane
He sat with me through my treatments
He washed my vomit stained hair
He brushed my teeth for me
He layed in the bed with me
He took care of our son for me
He breathed for me
Never could I asked for anyone better
Because I fall for the wrong guy, the guy with no hope. But they were wrong. The wrong guy, that's the only guy for me. I only wished I gave him more. I only wished I was there longer.
The night I died, I knew, I told him too
He brought my little man, we watched a movie, and I got to tuck him in one last time.
Gave him a kiss, told him I loved him.
Then I laid there in my cold hospital room
The scratchy sheets, the clean smell, the cold air, the quiet
The tears started to flow, I didn't want to die here
But when I was scared that's when my man saved me, again
He told me, I wouldn't die here, he told me that he would kill me
He snuck me out of the hospital, taking me to the beach, one last time.
He held me, and as the waves crashed, the stars sparkled and my man whispered sweet nothings to me, I felt it.
My soul leaving me, my body shutting down, and the last thing my man told me.
"You were always worth it, wait for me, I'll see you soon, my beautiful girl, I love you."
And like that I was sent to heaven, with his kiss. My man.
Dying wasn't scary and when I got there, I watched it, watched it all
I'd never seen my man break, not like he did, he wasn't the same, he wasn't my man.
He would talk to me, everyday, told me his worries, his memories, he would call my old number, text it, watched videos of us, to hear my voice.
I watched it all:
My son graduated
My man growing old
My son got married
My man stayed alone
My son had a baby
My man he got grumpy
I was always there, I was always watching, I never left them, I waited for them.
One winter morning he knew, and I knew too, my man, it was his time
He got all dressed up, called me one last time, called our boy, and laid down
A single tear slid down, and with a smile he laid down on his side of the bed
"I'm coming for you."
My man, he was finally here
