Sassy Lou

Down for Life

Our path runs together 

until time stands still

Through the darkest nights 

and hardest days

 

Your secrets are safe, 

whatever the cost 

Buried so deep 

they can never be lost

 

Your trust is the bridge between us

I will never burn it, 

because on the other side is you

 

My life is sweeter with you near

Still, my heart is full and strong inside me

I pick you every single day

 

I will guide you through 

the deepest shadows

and stay strong 

when fear surrounds you

 

I will bring light to your darkest hours,

steady your racing heart, 

and hold a quiet space just for you

 

Whenever the world tries to break your heart, 

I’ll be right there to catch you, 

time and again

 

You are not a place I disappear into, 

but a ground I stand upon with you

 

Down for life —

that’s not something I just say

It’s an absolute promise,

a quiet vow,

a connection built purely on trust and respect

 

Out of desire, 

not duty
