I would make a monument of you

I would make a monument of you
I’d color it bright
It’d stand tall
It’d stand strong
Just like you

I would make a monument of you
It’d hold all meaning of you to me
It’d hold all the secrets, the memories
It’d remind me how important you are
show your beauty

I would make a monument of you
for all you’ve done
the laughs you’ve made
the tears you’ve erased
the life you’ve saved

I would make a monument of you
and when you start to deteriorate
I’d rebuild, replace, and mend
every inch of you,
just like you did me.
