You

If someone is going to love me, I want it to be You,
When life throws stones, I want to be with You,
When the day is long and the night is cold, I want to be with You,
When sadness suffocates and someone helps me breath, I want it to be You,
When I am bursting with happiness, I want to share it with You,
When someone brings me to my knees, I want it to be You,
When someone makes me feel better, I want it to be You,
When I am lonely, I find companionship with You,
When life writes its last page, I want the book to be about me and You,
If someone is going to love me I want it to be You.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
