IT'S NOT WHAT I DO FOR YOU, THAT YOU MUST DO FOR ME.

Wed, 12/07/2016 - 14:06 -- Zia

I'll listen if you allow me to

And I'll understand if you give me the chance

I'll always be there to comfort you

Even within the times of protecting

Of which I can't

I will help you grow

I will help you succeed

It's not what I do for you

That you must do for me

I ask for nothing except

The acceptance you see within yourself

Because you're a work in progress

And just need a bit of help

You're beautiful no matter what

No matter what your eyes may say

To me you are my everything

And I enjoy you in every way

I know I probably sound corny

But in all honesty I don't care

I'm just a cornball in a nut shell

And you are the life with in my air

I won't force you to do things that you're too uncomfortable to do

But I'll listen if you allow me to

I'll understand if you give me the chance

I'll always be there to comfort you

Even within the times of protecting

Of which I can't

I will help you grow

I will help you succeed

It's not what I do for you

That you must do for me.
