You, my darling, are never alone,
In the shadows, I see you—aching, unknown.
I am here with matches, I will strike them all for you.

You deserve more than this world can bestow,
Though the cards are stacked, the odds unkind,
I’ll give you my cards every time.

When the weight is heavy, your shoulders weak,
I’ll lift you higher, the strength you seek.
For in your eyes, I see the spark—
A flame that survives, through thick and thin.

So let the world deal it's cruel hand,
Together, we’ll rise, together, we’ll stand.
I’ll reshuffle the deck, rewrite your fate,
For you, my darling, I’ll forever wait.
