What Matters Most To Me

You posed the question

So i will answer

What matters most to me

In simple terms is my family

For i fear not for myself

As expendable am i

But those i love

And have come to rely on

Are not

And should anyone or anything
come between us

Be truly sure and understand this 

I will not a single of my remaining day's

Inserting pins and reciting curses

On you and your loved one's

Both past and present

An eye for an eye

You take one of mine

I will make it my mission

To haunt you for eternity

These feelings are increasing in many households as we sequester ourselves. Good luck in the contest.
