In moments dark and filled with doubt, I stayed by your side, without a shout.
Through days of struggle, tears, and grief, I held you close, like a steadfast leaf.

When all seemed lost, and hope was thin, I lingered near, with a calming grin. No matter the storm or the strife, I chose to stay and share your life.

For in your heart, I found a light, a spark of beauty, burning bright. I couldn’t bear to walk away, and leave you to the shadows, gray.

So here I am, through thick and thin, a loyal friend, a trusted kin. I stayed because I couldn’t conceive, a world where I didn’t want to leave.
