The One Sacrifice

The One Sacrifice

Please do not protest
Because it will not suffice
To deter from my wish
In the one sacrifice

I love you - are words
And are openly perceived
Whether whole heartedly true
Or meant to deceive

But this is more than love
For I am half, but I'd give whole
To give my flesh and blood
And even my eternal soul

This is not a means to an end
Or a ploy to achieve my wish
Its an oath I soley take
That shall not sway or swish

If its not clear, let me say it straight
For this I owe to my other
I'd lay down my life, here and now
Forever, so you'd have your mother

Let me take her place, I beg of you
I place this upon my trust
This is the truth, I will not repeat
Believe my words you must

So here is the end, I've given my peace
Innocently never to entice
So heed my vow, for this is how
I offer the one sacrifice

    Awh'! You used the word "swish"! You should get, like, fifty-billion-ty points for that!

    And, like, I got a little confused with the whole... "For I am half, but I'd give whole" thing. I guess I just can't see into your genious, hon'.

    Another beautiful write in her dedication, hon'. ^_^ She's lucky to have a guy like you around.

      Yeah, I kinda felt like I was pushing it witht the word 'swish'.

      'For I am half' alludes to the fact that I'm not complete without her, and 'I'd give whole' alludes to the fact that I'd give everything I could for her.
