For Jade

For Jade… 

I’d rather die and let you live if the choice of life was mine to give… 

I’d rather be chained and you set free once I’m guaranteed your security… 

I’d rather give the best of me if it means you’ll see no poverty… 

My heart I’d bleed without a blink if indeed it makes you think…of life and love and fearless things…my life without a doubt I’d give. 

Free birds in flight I watch them soar… unto new heights they then explore… I wish you all these things and more…freedom, health and to be always adored…My Jade… My love… please endure…
