For You

by Karin   Nov 24, 2006


I write until my hand cramps up
I sing until my throat is sore
I walk until I can't walk another inch.
But, for you, I would write an extra page
I would sing a song again
I would walk one more mile.

I dance until my feet feel like they are going to fall off
I talk until my voice gives
I cry until no more tears fall from my eyes.
But, for you, I would dance to another song
I would talk for another hour
I would shed another tear.

I stay awake until my eyes can't stay open any longer
I laugh until my stomach hurts
I smile until my mouth feels stiff.
But, for you, I would stay awake a few more hours
I would laugh at another joke
I would smile one more smile, right at you.

I would do all these extra things
Just to show you how much I love you.
