Nearly twice as tall,
And just as thin,
You hold me in your arms,
And the whole thing begins.
"Today was just awful!" I cried into your shoulder,
You kept me sane the entire time,
My eternal holder ,
You helped me through my darkest days.
You move me to the couch,
And pull me farther in,
I tried to resist your help,
But I knew you'd always win.
You wrapped your knee around me,
Locking me in place,
I never wanted to be free,
From your loving embrace.
Kissing the top of my head,
You whispered comforting words in my ear,
Saying they weren't worth getting this worked up over,
Killing my fear.
I wrapped my arms around your shoulders,
Burying my face into your chest,
I never knew a guy that would be any bolder,
Then to hold me close and make the whole world disappear.
A soft kiss on my lips,
Wiping the stray tears from my cheeks,
The warmth from the fire spreading over us,
I hadn't felt this safe in weeks.
Until you took me into those arms I felt as if I was hanging by a thread,
But I know from your soft kisses and deep embraces this will never end.
