My Reason

By my side you have been,

Through the thick and the thin.

There when I’ve needed you the most,

There before I knew what was happening.

There before it all went wrong.

Thereafter it all went to hell.

You were there for it all,

Each and every fall.

Abandonment you fear,

Never will I allow it to be.

I shall protect you,

As you have me.

By me you are guarded,

By me you are loved.

My reason for being,

My reason for breathing.

The reason I got through it alive,

The reason I got through it at all.

The one who switched sorrow into joy,

The one who kept me strong,

The one who made me fight,

The one who kept me going,

The one who I did not quit for,

The one who kept the thoughts at bay.

Your gaze brings me happiness,

The only one who can.

The dark days, a glimmer of light.

Our souls are connected,

Meant to be.

Meaning, hope, joy, purpose, and life,

You have given me.

The only one who has truly set me free.

The only one who has truly awoken me.

The only one who I can truly cherish.

There for each other,

When we’ve needed it most.

Meant to save each other,

As fate must have it.

Safety nets we are,

When vulnerable and weak.

I still am, because of you.

You still are, because of me.

Intertwined and connected our souls must be.

In our lives when it mattered most.

Though we can’t exist together forever,

Forever together we are.

Our bond is strong,

For we have suffered together.

Our love is strong,

For we are broken forever.

Our hope is alive,

For we have broken free.

Creating a better life together.

Our last few years,

We will remember forever.

A reason to be is you,

A meaning of hope you are.

My best friend.

My companion.

My soulmate.

My main reason…..
