Every night I think of things,
I see decisions made.
The paths unspoken and bridges burned,
futures laid to waste.

I stare at them and wonder,
where did things go wrong?
Still a lonely soul does wander,
as it walks its path alone.

I fear the path I see you walking,
because I see what could one day be.
The road you walk is unpaved and broken,
and all too familiar to me.

Things will begin to change,
small at first, but then it grows.
And your decisions now affect your world,
more than words can show.

Be careful of this road you walk,
be wary of each step you take.
Tread these waters carefully,
thin ice is inclined to break.

You’re stronger than you think you are,
but not as strong as you pretend to be.
But you don’t have to walk this path alone,
You can always look to me.

Know that if you should ever fall,
I will lift you to your feet.
And I will always care for you,
as long as this heart does beat.

I am not a superman,
or a hero by any means.
I’m may falter from time to time,
and sometimes tear at the seams.

But I will be there good or bad,
and I will always lend a hand.
If you need a shoulder to cry,
then, sweetheart, I’m your man.

But don’t be blind to this path you walk,
just open your eyes for me.
You’re never alone in these dark times,
on the blackened road I see.
