For Her

I have traveled over a thousand miles I have been greeted by both hugs and smiles I have traveled over oceans and lands Just to reach my destination and to hold her hands, I have been by myself and all alone I have cried to myself and I did moan Many afflictions to me did occur But I did it for me, but mostly for her, I have been pushed against the wall and I fought I would win the battle that I had sought To any situation I believed I will never accept no So I fought that much longer and forward I did go, I have worked my fingers down to the bone I earned what I had and nearly lost what I did own But from all of these factors I did not deter As I did it for me, but mostly for her, I have fought for love, but then sadly I lost My pain and my sadness was the ultimate cost I journeyed for love, but that idea went bust While I was looking for love, she was seeking lust I have given all I had I had nothing more to give Except for the air that I breath and the life that I live I wanted us to be one, but then I thought that we were As I did it for me, but I did it mostly for her.
