How far might you go To protect those you hold dear How much could you give up To keep them in the clear
If their life was put in danger By someone who wanted a thrill Rather than sit and watch them die Would you be willing to ****?
What if it were both of you Who's lives were on the line If asked who's life should meet an end Would you be able to say "mine"
What if they were an angel Who always put others first And they sacrificed themselves To keep the world from getting cursed
Would you respect their wishes And allow their life to end Knowing they'd be forever in pain Would you allow them to ascend
Or to guarantee their happiness Would you give up your own Would you rebel against your love And forever be alone
Causing them to hate you And giving up your soul Would you still embrace the darkness To prevent their noble goal
How far might you go To protect that which you adore Would you descend away from good Would you forever close that door?
Ugh....I'm trying to hard to keep with my tradition of giving each poem a one word title...but GOSH did I have trouble this time. I have never wanted to badly to give a longer poem name :/ I worked on this...and tweaked it...and rewrote it 100 times...and it still isn't quite how I want it...but it'll have to do. Anyways, I hope you all enjoy it....and that it at least somewhat comes across to others the way I want it to. Also, sorry for the dark nature of this poem. These are the types of poems I have the most fun writing, and I haven't written one in a while, but I always worry they will worry people/make people uncomfortable/offend people. SO YEAH. I hope that isn't the case. <3
