My senses laughed joyously
While everyone around me prayed
Maybe she'll see the odds before
Fate tells her it's too late..
Heart and mind speak in sync
For those moments where
Rationality shouldn't think..
I've chosen to walk a path that leads
To the birth of this seed
While risking the destruction of me
Peers protecting mournful premonitions
Selfishness disguised in
Negative visions..
But these views could never
Destroy the undeniable love I have for
You..
The choice to live belongs to me
So..I willingly..
Give to fate's cold hand
The fist that burns with certainty
No matter what the odds may be
You make the risk worthwhile---
Hands down
I've gotten quite used to the doubtful sounds
Of disbelief and disconsolate depositions..
Pretending your presence is not the goal
Yet, it's my only mission..
I've only listened to you..
The way that you move before the sun peaks
Over the horizon..
Gently waking me up
Each day you increase in size and..
I ponder on the fact that...
Percentages mean nothing during these
Indescribable acts of reverence
That descend upon me...
I will make you this promise:
As sure as the breath that you'll conceive,
I will continue to be the light in this world that you
Breathe...
