I will love her
In the dark
When her salt cracked grin
And rough limbs are all she has
holding her together
I will love her

When she wakes in the morn
to a body that is not always akin
to the way she feels within
I will love her

When she falls asleep
with death's hand draped
over the small of her hip
I will love her

When he answers
and says he's busy plus
she's using this phone right now
"I don't really want you to need me
but you know I'm here for you"
I will love her

When she loses sympathy
for the ones who can't seem
to find their way out
cause ya know she "had it hard too"
I will love her

Self love is unconditional
And unwavering
Remember that
