You Are

You are my heart and my rock, the reason i am able to stand back up.
The rhyme that my heart beats to, the echo in my ear, the force that makes my pain 
disappear. 
The strength I need to fight this crazy cycle that is our lives.
The teddy bear to hold when I am scared and need to hide. 
The hand I feel when I need you there. The rib in my body that keeps me whole.
I need you there to be my guide a lending, giving, helpful eye.
A blanket to keep me warm from all the cold in the world.
You are my love, you are carried in my bones deep inside where my blood lies.
The force that without a doubt keeps my alive.
By fate we were brought together and hardwork and patience will keep us that way.
Easy it never is, but love never can be. 
Just know that you are mine until the end and i am certain that is no lie.
