For You -- Mervin
-
Dudes love to be like, oh, I would die for you. Oh, I would kill for you. Okay, well, I would be kind for you
I would reject the impulses to indulge in my violent nature for you
I would wake up and get out of bed an hour early every morning to make coffee and breakfast for you
I would be there for you
No matter what
I would leave the light on for you until you felt safe, and I would hold you so tight
Until you felt at peace
Sure
I can be strong if I have to. I can fight if itβs truly necessary
But when I think about the way that I love you, it does not make me feel violent
It makes me feel quiet
And gentle
And calm
When I look at you, I know that I am not a violent dog
And I will not bite -
