I Would

I came to know what it was like to struggle.
And what it was like to go without.

I came to know what it was like to be disappointed.
And what it was like to live with heartache and pain.

Then I met you.

To this day,
I can still remember when you had asked me,
"Would you like to meet someone that would:
...speak heart to heart with you.
...love and cherish you forever.
...be willing to work at becoming your best friend.
...be there for you through the bad times as well as the good."

And I had replied, "I would."
