Swear you’ll hold her tight
From sounds that screech,
And all the things that try to reach
Corrosive claws for her thoughts at night.
She may not be able to express
The demons she faces when she dares,
So never tell her no one cares;
Just love her and she won’t repress.
She’s stronger than she’ll ever know, so
Don’t try to be just her hero;
Be the place she’s safe at zero,
And watch what wonders love will show.

Swear you’ll hold her tight
From sounds that screech,
And all the things that try to reach
Corrosive claws for her thoughts at night.
She may not be able to express
The demons she faces when she dares,
So never tell her no one cares;
Just love her and she won’t repress.
She’s stronger than she’ll ever know, so
Don’t try to be just her hero;
Be the place she’s safe at zero,
And watch what wonders love will show.
