Kristine really inspried me to write a poem. haha. I've never written poety before...so be nice. Oddly enough, we had the same muse to inspire our poems.

The Things I Do...

I accept you for who you are.
I take you for who you're not.
Even if you stray too far,
I will follow and not stop.
Every time you hurt me,
I will easily forgive.
For you I'd give my life up,
just so you can live.
If you're gonna dream,
Go ahead and dream great.
I will always be there for you,
To relieve you of the weight.
I'd lift you up so high just so you can reach.
Yet I would be humble enough to listen if you teach.
We understand each other in ways no others can.
We know each other's darkest secrets and our simplest demands.
There are so many inside jokes that I can easily recall.
Lilo and Stitch, "don't look down", and "peeing" on my wall.
We seem so different yet we are the same.
I know where you are going,
because from there was where I came.
I won't forget the good times, nor forget the bad.
Nor will I forget how strong you always want to stand.
I and many people,
simply love you for you...
and not how you imitate what other people do.
Even if you find it a disgrace,
Please try to be yourself.
It's what we all embrace.
Don't sell yourself short, you're worth more than you know.
No matter who you are or what you do.
You're still my little bro.
Just don't forget who’s walking behind you...
Not just me or just your friends
but if you have faith,
God will guide you till the end.
He crossed our paths for reasons I don't understand.
But no matter what they are,
I'm sure He has something planned.

The things I do...are not just for you...
But maybe a little bit of it
was meant for me too.
