Awoken by the sound of the softest strings
Shrouded in my endless nightmare.
You held me close and helped me close
My mind to all that’s not fair.
You took my hand and kissed my face
And showed me the way back
To a place I’d long forgotten;
Away from all that’s rotten.

Can I tell you something, dearest damsel?
Clearly and sincerely.
I’ve never felt so cared for.
I’ve never felt so loved.
I’d never had the best time
On the worst day of my life.
Until you showed me stripes and stars all day.
Secret artwork; know you’re the real work of art.
Now I’ll never forget how you took my hand
And showed me yours is the warmest heart.
