Ever faithful

by aheartlostpoet

Call me what you will I understand that the things you say are just words I never understood the phrase actions speak louder than words Until I was 19, heart broken and looking back at my life You see I have a lot of great friends Friends who are there for me when I need Friends who worry even when I don't want them to So call me what you will Say what you want Say that I don't care Say I'm bad for her Say I'm wrong I don't care what you say You see the problem with this world is we hang on what people say not what they do I am not perfect in fact I am far from it But I have one thing One thing that most guys don't I'm old fashioned I make a vow or a promise and I keep it So even after everything has gone and I am left I will hold that promise You see even if she calls 10 years from now Even if I'm on the other side of the world If I have a career If I haven't spoken to her since that day, The moment she calls I will be there because I promised I would be I promised to always love her To protect her To be there when she needs someone To be the thing that pushes her to do better when everyone else gives up Call me stupid and childish but those promises mean something They aren't words They are actions And your damn right I will push her I will be there I will love her And I will protect her until the day I die Doesn't matter who you are you will not hurt her without answering to me

Notes

First time I've put this much raw unadulterated power behind my words. I am truly sorry I can't read this to you, because it will be hard to capture the power in these words
