I thought you didn't mean it - POEM 19

 You said you loved me,

I didn't believe you.


You said you'd do anything for me,

I thought you were exaggerating.


You said you'd give up your life for me,

I thought you were crazy and absurd.


But now here you are in that room fighting for your life because you kept to the promise you made,

Here I am so surprised and shocked wondering how exactly a person could be so stupid.

How someone could love so much without expecting anything in return.


I guess I could also be called stupid because in that moment,

I was ready to give it up,

To see you live and be well.


But you only thought about how you couldn't live without me,

But did you ever ask if I could live without you?

Because I can't.
