I can see your struggling,
And it kills me seeing you like this.
My heart clenches at the thought of anyone hurting you and-
As I stand in front of you,
I try to think of anything that I can do to make you feel better.
You are so beautiful to me,
I don't ever want to let you go.
This world isn't easy, and it hasn't always been kind to you,
Right now things are hard and I am trying to protect you,
To give you the love I know you deserve,
The love that she will not give you.
There's a lump in my throat and I want so bad,
So so bad to just reach out and give you a hug.
The gentle touch of my hand.
Anything to let you know,
To reassure you that everything will be okay.
I can't promise it,
But I will do everything that I can to help you,
To protect you,
To love you,
To show you that I am here.
You are the most beautiful person I have ever seen, inside and out,
You give when don't have much left.
You love making others happy,
And I try to make you happy any way that I can.
I know you feel trapped,
You're trying to figure out what you want,
Or why you want it.
You want to give in,
Want to let me love you like you should be,
But you are worn,
Worn from the years of hardship you have encountered,
And mine have not been any better.
You and I have both been through our share of hell,
We try to figure things out,
Take it one day at a time.
Only time will tell,
But I know that you,
my precious, my love, My life,
I know that you will always be in my heart.
Raw and exposed little by little
I have watched as you gave your heart to me,
I have watched you struggle and-
As I would want from you-
I have waited patiently for you to figure things out.
I will do whatever I can to make you happy.
Even if it means letting you lean on me when I am broken,
Being strong for the both of us.
