With waiting arms
Catch me if I fell
Down the tunnel of past my soul plunge
Into depression's cold deep well

Dry the tears
That lay on my cheeks
Caress my lips ever lightly
Offer a lovers embrace

Calm me
With tender words
When life becomes too much to bear
Tiny stitches sew with kindness
To mend my poor hearts tear

Place your hand in mine
Affection's gift without cost
Brave the dungeon of dark shadows
Should I stumble and become lost

Cast a net of sparkling stars
Across me as I sleep
Guard me from monsters of sadness
If in my slumber weep  

If you loved me
