Would you die for me?
no that's too easy
would you live for me?
would you stand by me
through the wildest storms
and the driest of seasons
would you love my broke ass
and stand by me
through my side hustling and
dream chasing
support me through my dreams
and stay by my side even
if your folks didn't approve of me
would you love me
when it's hard
when our world is slowly falling apart
crumbling down to nothing
but deleterious debris and dust
would you
would you love me if love itself was no longer enough
if I was a burden embedded deep within
an inferno of broken promises and trust
would you love me if your friends hated my guts
or treated me like some retarded nerd ,weirdo
or a freak who ain't a stranger to the dark
would you
go against everything that you stood for
to save our love
engulfed in the ethics, cultures, beliefs, and norms
handed to us by our dads and moms
pastors, preachers and prophets
that we solemn...ly swore to live by
or will you refuse to
be overpowered by these good for
nothing mere rules
made by this society we live in
will you do anything for us, regardless
of what you stand to lose
in the long run
would you stick around if
my body slowly shut down
if I could no longer do the things I could
do before
touch, see,
taste, feel
if my whole body was so sore to the extremes
would you show remorse
would you forgive me if I ever cheated and slept with another woman or your best friend
look past my mistake
like it's just nothing
or a nightmare that you just awaken from
yet eyes so swollen
from streams of tears
would you believe that you were just dreaming with your eyes wide open
would you love me
if ten years passed and I hadn't succeeded
impeded by factors beyond my limits
if I still hadn't bought you that boat, a nice mansion by the dock, those rubies,
diamonds and gold
not forgetting those pearls I once promised
if after all those years I still hadn't called your folks
and asked for their blessings
and your hand in marriage
would
you
still
love
me
if I got involved in shady dealings
on my way to riches reaching try to reach
levels way beyond my reach and end up in jail trying
prison
would you stand with me in the court of law
and make them listen to my voice of reason
and if I got in, sentenced to almost fifteen
years in a correctional institution
by the time I got out, will you be long gone
or will I find you waiting for me at the gates of freedom
will you love me even if the world told you I was nothing but bad news,
if I never told you about my past, scared
at the fact that I might lose you
my love will you love me
love me beyond all that
and with no doubt, not even one
will
you
still
love
me
if I completely lost interest in you
forgot every memory of you and me
will you knock me back to my senses,
fight for us
or will you just walk off as if we never happened
will you
will you love me if I wasn't at all that great in bed
couldn't satisfy you to your fullest
and make you cup runeth over
if I was just some hopeless romantic, the worst
will you still stick around regardless of all those
situations
will you love me if I was a depressed stoner and
an alcoholic
spent my money on whores, drugs and liquor
will you stick around and help me through all that shit, look past it like it ain't nothing
but just a random life challenge
or will you leave me for a better guy
tell me
will you love me past all my flaws,
love me for me and not the cover
beyond the tightest bends
will you still love me my dear lover
be my light in the darkness
will you stand up and fight,
for me, for you, for us
will you fight through everything that tries to break our trust
hold on til the very end
for when we depart from this world those two dates written on our
tombstones won't matter
but the little dashes in between
so would you
would you live for me my dear melancholy?
