Let me be

by Gwen   Jun 26, 2005


To my beautiful daughter
please lean on me today,
Let me be your strength
and take your pain away.
Let me be your shoulders
to carry the burden of this life,
Let me be your hands
to throw away that knife.
Let me be your heart
so you dint feel the pain,
Let me be your protection
from the elements and the rain.
Please let me deep inside your head
and take the images from your mind,
I promise to replace them
with all thats good and kind.
Let me be your legs today
so you don't have to run anymore,
Instead we'll take a leisurely stroll
along the water shore.
Sweetheart,let me be your eyes
so I can stem the flow of tears,
If I could,I'd be the sands of time
and replace these lost years.
Please,I'll be anything
because I cant say goodbye,
I will even take your final breath
so you don't have to die.
I know I cant be all these things
but Hailey,there has to be a way,
I just want to help you
and stop you from going away.
