No Regrets

If I should go on a mission today,

And a kunai strike me dead,

Images of your smiling face,

Will be the last thing in my head.

I'll cry and want you to hold me,

Wish for your arms to bring me warmth,

And remove this pain from inside me,

Allowing happiness to come forth.

I'll yell out your name at the top of my lungs,

And if I have the strength,

Spread my arms out to welcome you,

Reaching to their full length,

And if I find them empty,

Because you are nowhere near,

My throat might clench too tightly,

And my heart will fill with fear.

Without you by my side,

I would feel so weak,

My remaining strength would leave me,

And my future would look bleak.

Because without you, I am nothing.

Just a man without a soul,

You are the most important part of me,

The part that makes me whole.

I was born the day I met you,

And on that day, it was clear,

I could never live alone again,

Without you somewhere near.

You healed my oldest wounds,

You put me back together,

You helped me find myself again,

And promised me forever.

Forever stretches further than death,

And that's why I would not be afraid,

To die knowing that you were happy,

And no longer needed my aid.

But my heart would still cry out for you,

If that event should occur,

Because if I couldn't see you one last time,

I could never be sure.

And with my last breath,

A smile would cross my lips,

Remembering how you kissed me,

Your arms around my hips.

I'd continue to watch over you,

Each and every day,

I'd visit you in your dreams,

And talk to you that way.

I'd be able to rest in peace,

Loving the one I could never forget,

And knowing that I had you in my life,

I could leave without regret.
