to tender hearts like yours.
having never asked for anything
but expecting love all the same;
receiving back and forth direction
not knowing who to trust.
looking around dark corners
in unsuspecting views,
watching everyone over your shoulder
fearing disappointment.
pieces of you have been left behind
and some may never be found.
because people you loved hurt you
and that you never deserved.
as you aged you grew a bit wiser
and opened parts for them to see
but in fates that twist in unseen ways
they dragged you back for more.
i'm not going to be the one
who saves you from your pain,
who takes you from imperfect lands
or seeks the answers of your descent.
but i'll be the one to show you
that i won't leave your side
and in times of struggle or despair
i won't be far behind.
and i'll be the one who shows you
that darkness still needs light
and loving hearts live long past pain;
i'm always on your side.
