So Do I Poem by mhawi rosero

my hands are shaking
so does my whole body
i’m deteriorating slowly
i can feel it now

my head is cracking
so does my whole body
i’m breaking, painfully
i can feel it now

my knees are weak
so does my whole body
i’m falling, rapidly
i can feel it now

my eyes are squinted and tired
so does my whole body
i’m blinded, tearfully
i can feel it now

it’s hard to see
to breath easily
it’s hard to live
to go on happily

i don’t know if i’d last a lifetime
if i could still go on with forever
my body’s giving up
i’m destroyed

but i would live as long as i love you
no pains, no aches…
nothing could make me stop loving you

even death…
