All my life, it's been the ultimate epitome of love, to die for someone. To
into a battle to protect them, and know that they'll most likely die....
That's what they always showed in the movies. That's what I was always
told. .... that you'd give your life, that would be the ultimate
sacrifice....
But when I met you, I learned that it wasn't all about death. It wasn't just going into a loosing battle bravely, for the one you loved... just as much as it is romantic to die for someone, I think it's twice as romantic to live for them.
It sounds sort of cliche, I know. I can imagine some sappy Fabio creep with his shirt half unbuttoned pulling some slutty heroine to his rather defined chest and whispering gently into her ear 'I'll come back.... I'll live, for you.' and it just sounds... stupid. Sappy, and just... not what any girl should have in mind for what they want. And it totally misses the mark-- of us.
How many times have you been so close to death, and... and I just screamed over and over again in my head that I want you to live, I wanted you to keep breathing. I wanted you to come back into this world, where you'd be submitted to more torment and more brutal beatings, and more stupid fights and .... more pain. I wanted you to come back to the pain. i can feel the tears well a little longer as i pray to anyone who happens to be listening. 'Please.... Just a little longer, just for me.'
and as soon as you're well again ...you rush off into battle, to protect me, because it's what you give. And that's the way you show you care .... by protecting them, to give up your life for them.... to die for them. But every time you rush in to battle once again. I long. I long for what I can't have. your life. I want you to give up your life for me. The arguments... the violence, and the attitude ...the battles and the blood.... the wandering-- everything. ....
I want to be your reason to live.
~~ A/N: Too sappy? Too Angsty? Too melodramatic? Psh. I don't care. It's unrequited love. What do I care? Hope you enjoyed. :) Ja Ne?
