I Will Stand

By M. Jay Mansfield

Once the tired has robbed the passions strength
and all the gifts have grown dull with age
I still would go to any length
For ever does the love still rage

When the touches aren't frequent friends
and we wonder where it went
Still what I would do for you knows no ends
this calm now is worth what we spent

I pray that touches always remain
and passion stays close at hand
But if they drift away, I'll maintain
A love for you that still will stand
