Notes About The Poem

This is a result of a lifelong friend who was heading down the wrong path in life and it came to the point of doing something drastic or losing them. I chose the former and for a time it was ugly but in the end that person is alive and they dont hate me anymore.
 

Nothing Personal

I love you too much 
To let anything bad happen to you 
I love you too much
To see you do bad things 
I love you too much 
To do nothing 

I wont sit and do nothing 
I will stop you 
Even if I have to hurt you to save you 
I wont sit and do nothing 

It’s nothing personal 
I just love you too much
