Safe

You are my sanctuary
A place I can hide
Like my pen and paper
You're always by my side

I cry because I hurt
But only on the inside
Without you here
I'm sure I would have died

You are my safety
You're my confidante
Somehow you wipe tears away
Along with the memories that haunt

You're that smile
On a rainy day
You're in everything
I do and say

You're my heart
You help me make it through
I can't imagine a day
That I could be without you

But don't say a word to me
When I cry
You can't make it better
No matter how hard you try

Even though I love you
I can't get better right away
Give me time
Maybe I'll heal another day

You're still my soul
Still my butterfly
You're an everlasting
Natural high

And I don't know why
But sometimes my smile doesn't stay
Let me cry the pain out
Cry till it goes away

It doesn't mean you hurt me
It means someone else had
So when I cry for no reason
It's not you who made me sad

Just understand I'm fragile
And you help me by just being there
Give me your love and affection
And, remember, to handle with care
