Please don't worry babe, I'll be here till I'm 85!

I know I’m dying,
we all are,
that’s life’s game,
But mine’s sped up by cancer,
it’s not the same.
Don’t worry,
Liz,
everything’s gonna be alright,
See,
I’ll be here ‘til I’m 85,
or until my last goodnight.
Set your worry shackles free,
believe in what’s to be,
A future bright and hopeful,
just you and me.

We’ll light the sky with vibes,
full of love and fluffy things,
No cash promises,
but I'll bring what love brings.
Forever your shield,
always your knight,
Wine and dine,
Whatever the night.

Taking us places our hearts never seen,
Living life large,
no in-between.
Sail with me to lands unknown,
Traverse the world,
make it our own.

Set our wings free,
break every chain,
In this crazy game of life,
we’ll never be the same.
Filled with memories,
joy on blast,
Together,
babe,
we’ll make it last.

With passion’s fire,
we’ll light the night,
In each other’s arms,
holding tight.
The world’s our stage,
love’s our play,
We’ll rock this life,
come what may.

Feel the heat,
my love,
let’s ignite,
In your embrace,
everything’s right.
Through every storm,
through every fight,
With you,
my love,
life’s pure delight!

Thank you for that as means a lot to me to know that others, not only view my work, but actually like it too. A lot of what I write is to help others through their own torments, trials and tribulations in life. As well as remembering the good times too. My 1st book, which all the proceeds go to my local hospice and a charity called the honeyrose foundation, is on Amazon.co.uk, kindle and kindle unlimited. It's called, 'Fate is Inexorable, fighter mode' by myself, James Bevan. It first off offers you my life story battling cancer, now, for the past 24 years and how I've done it. Then the medical research behind it too. Though the main bulk of the book comprises of my poetry and occasional lyrics. So, if you did like what you read, there's plenty more in there. What's better is, it's free on kindle unlimited.... sorry. This reply wasn't meant as a sales pitch but do feel my work needs to get out there to the public eye... cheers again for the comment, james
