Die For You, Crossroad Poem by STANLEY PACION

Let me take this moment, or two,
And publish, 'You are the best thing,
That has ever happened in my life! '

May God forgive;
I have no wish to disdain His great gift.
Yet were fate to bring us to terrible juncture,
A crossroad whereat all choice reduces
To either my earthly existence, or yours,
Gladly would I give up mine,
I would die for you.

I express this simple interlude,
Mean it as a paean to the experience,
The joy of having had the splendid fortune,
How wonderful the time I spend with you!
