A Fight For Love

A Fight For Love

How I'd always longed for change,
Never again to be the same.
To rebuild myself inside and out,
And wash away my fears and doubts.

With no ropes to bind me down.
To push my smiles into frowns.
The truth weighed on me like heavy stones,
But with each I caught there were more to be thrown.

I will never regret my existence.
I hold my head high, with persistence.
I cherish my pride and strong-minded ways.
Love is not something to just give away.

Love is strong, with a mind of it's own.
Love is meant to be shared and shown.
Don't be shy, timid, or afraid.
And don't ever throw your love away.
