She'll Last

She's going away to another journey now I hope it will be a bit smoother than our current one I'm sure there will still be hurdles and mountains Ones she will climb with glee She'll pass them and come back a little tougher I just won't be there to witness the heights she'll reach I'll be climbing my own mountains then And I can't support her in times of need Then again, she doesn't need my help in the first place Though I sometimes wish I could still give it She's small but she has a giant soul One capable of devouring dragons She cares for me not, and it's fine A story as old as my life Caring for someone doesn't need a return A smile in my face to help the people I care about A martyr maybe, but why do you care This time a pushover, that I am aware I don't want any trouble and drama I just want her to smile and to last in memory
