For Better or For Worse

by Shawn Williams   Jun 9, 2005


Sometimes I cant fathom
How deep your sadness
Your self doubt so loud
I can hear your madness

You weep on my shoulder
Reflects passion and fear
Waterfalls from the sky
I bathe in angelic tears

I love you through
Your depression and pain
For better or for worse
The obsessions in your brain

When my body was sick
You laid hands and made me well
You loved me in my illness
At my weakest...that year of hell

Holding deaths hand
Toward that tunnel of light
You wouldn't let me go
Your faith gave me life

So...If love is a mortal sin
here is my confession
I would die a million deaths
To feel your breath while caressing

Before you and my maker
I lie before the world naked
Exposed...emotions flow
I pour them on paper

You give me strength
laced with patience
With you by my side
I could conquer nations
