i climbed your highest mountains, <br />waded your raging rivers. <br />went stomping with elephants <br /> <br />through you darkest jungles. <br />stood between you and the gun! <br />walked barefoot in your snows, <br /> <br />sat imprisoned in your cell. <br />made the leap, and dared to fly, <br />wiped the tears from your face. <br /> <br />built a home for your heart, <br />with human hands and sweat.... <br />bandaged your wounds, <br /> <br />took your curse... <br />how is it then... <br />that love conquered me?<br /><br />Eric Cockrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/conquered-me/
