A Different Kind of Love Poem

I've heard it said that poems of love Are nothing more than cliche' Everything's been written, everything's been said In every conceivable way They've written about the ocean's blue Or a smile that could envy the sun They write about this thing called undying love Until their days on this earth are done But what about you're the reason God gave me lungs To shout your name from the highest of hills And the reason He made those goosebumps things When your touch keeps giving me chills And what about those unanswered prayers of marriage For He knew I was waiting for you And the part where He says in sickness and health And the cancer you're going through He says for richer or poorer and our money is gone Hospital bills that we just can't pay But I want you to know if you stay or you go I couldn't love you more than I do today
