The Only Answer

If I call out your name
will you hear me?
If the tears start to fall
will you wipe them away?
If my heart is breaking
will you pick up all the pieces?
If my mind is clouded
will you be my eyes?
If I fall down and get hurt
will you be there to hold me?
If my soul should fly away
will you help me find it?
If my body quakes and shivers
will you keep me warm?
If my dreams turn to nightmares
will you hold my hand?
If I die tomorrow
will you still love me forever?
Questions ooze from a mind,
from a heart, broken and betrayed.
Unable to believe what the heart knows,
Questions tumble from bruised lips.
The only answer she longs to hear:
"Yes my dear,
I will do all of this and more
because you are my heart, my life,
and my one and only love."
