I promise you,
Its okay to cry.
I'll hold you in a soft embrace,
With a small kiss on your forehead.
I'll hold your hand tightly,
And list all the reasons you matter.
I'll feel your pulse,
And count every heartbeat.
Your heartbeat cannot define how much I love you.
You are my best friend.
You are everything to me.
I'll hold you forever,
And list all the reasons why you're important.
I want to never let go.
You are the reason why I hold so tightly to life.
Even while I sit idly in a hospital bed,
I won't let go,
Just for you.
I want you to hold just as tightly as I do you.
Even when I go to pass,
Promise me you won't follow me.
I want you to fulfill everything I couldn't.
Promise me,
Will you?
A/N: Do you prefer my poetry to be written in italics? I personally like the way it looks. Give me your opinions. :)
