#protect
Standing alone in the field,
swept by comrades, yet in it
he moved with dignity and honor
to protect the soil he was born in.
Though he wears a fearsome armor,
it is like butter
that melts for his hometown.
Yet dignified, not to disobey him.
The war came —
with it came many lives,
but he saw something new
that moved his heart.
A little child moving
though nearly swept away,
still moved near him and gave a flower
with a smile. He accepted, though
the smile couldn't be seen.
But the little girl felt
his warmth through the steel,
for he vowed to forever protect
this world so that child could live happily.

My heart was a hand grenade
that never stopped exploding.
The things I'd say
lonely exploring,
adventurer on solo journeys,
swearing honesty, truly.
Fighting to prove our love,
drowning in flowers
grown from far above.
Connected in the most ill of ways
sickened by the thought of you,
stuck like a fly in glue.
You vanquished me.
I resurrected,
swore an oath
your heart, I'd protect it.

The wild branch sits still, heaven protects its own.
The birds fly above preaching of its elegance and demeanor.
The winds blow adhering to its feat.
Hoping even slowly but surely he will be reborn.
But alas, the devil protects its own.

There are different types of trauma in this world,
Some make you loose your voice,
Some make you have a voice.
The first leaves you even more vulnerable,
Unable to protect yourself,
Unable to talk back,
Unable to leave,
Unable to choose yourself,
Feeling you have no self-worth.
Then there's the second,
You try to protect yourself,
You talk back,
You leave,
You learn to choose yourself,
You may be battling with self esteem or self-worth,
But you know deep down you shouldn't be facing this,
Or maybe you think you deserve it for unexplained reasons but just refusing to fight back.
Regardless of the reasons,
It's better to die fighting than to die without putting up a fight,
Whether it's to your past, present or future,
You're deserving of love, time and attention.
You're not a jinx,
You're not weird,
You're not a bad omen,
You're just YOU,
So don't let people define you.
And don't spend your whole life on earth defining yourself by other,
Don't think of leaving,
Don't end it,
Don't give up,
You may not see the light now,
But I promise the light is there,
It will get better.
Just live,
Try living,
Continue living,
Till it's not hard anymore,
Till it feels natural,
Till you don't have to pretend anymore,
Then you'll know that giving up on life is never the solution,
Because you know you're better than before and you're healing.
So please don't give up,
Keep living and trying your best.
It does get better.

The villain is believed to be the enemy.
The one that everyone despises.
The one that is thought to be selfish
And believed to think only of themselves.
But what if the villain is not so evil?
The villain that protects those they love.
The villain that only wishes to be loved back.
The villain who would sacrifice the world for their love.
The villain that could be the hero,
If only the world loved them back.

If you consider me a threat,
maybe reconsider-
what it is you're
trying to protect.

Unblinking eyes, plastic smiles
Not seeing me, this thing defiled
No friends, many enemies
No one cares about me
Shunned kids at school
Not good enough, too uncool
Taking me to my limit
I just kept on taking it
Pushing it down deep inside
Shows itself as I hide
A target, bullied every day
I die a little more each day
Collapsing inside, heart first
Don't they know how much it hurts?
In private, hot tears slide
Won't let them take my pride
I pretend that I don't care
Don't return their cold stares
Rush back home to get away
Don't want to be bullied today

I'm a liar
I do that to protect myself but so does the world
I'm a liar
I lie to people that frighten me
I'm a liar
I shake visibly when I do
I'm a liar
I lie to people I don't trust
I'm a liar
When I lie I beat my self for days,weeks,
months,years to come
I'm a liar
I wish you would understand me so I would stop
I'm a liar
I'm visibly disgusted by myself each moment I utter those words
I'm a liar
It's why I talk sparse
I'm a liar
Because its the only way I'll survive
That or keep mute
So I'll keep being silent or ill keep being the lier i soo hate to protect myself.
But I'm transparent
To the only person Willing to bare themself Free of judgement
To that person
I'm an angel of truth

A wise man has told me things that aren’t true.
A child has told me the secrets of the universe.
Knowledge is not limited to those with privilege and power.
Knowledge is often used to right the wrongs of those in control.
Knowledge is a tool that empowers the wielder with strength.
When wielded for good,
knowledge can be a pen to create.
When wielded for good,
knowledge can be a sword to protect.
When wielded by evil,
knowledge becomes a concealing blindfold.
When wielded by evil,
knowledge becomes a restricting rope.
Knowledge can create and protect freedom, joy, and even life.
Knowledge can be used to conceal and restrict the same things.

Please don’t arouse
my anger
I don’t know
what I’ll do
If you threaten
My children
I might
Decapitate you
Please don’t arouse
My anger
Stay on
my Good side
Friend
If you arouse
My anger
It may mean
Your end

I'm that girl
Who
When it rains
Carrys her umbrella
But won't use it
She'd rather get rained on
I was injured as a child
By an umbrella
I opened it and it sliced
My finger
I remember the pain too well
So now I fear being
Injured by the one thing
I had to protect me
From the storm
So I may still carry you
With me
But I might not
Let you protect me
This is how I am.
This is why.

You are my world, my every breath,
a love that lingers, defying death.
Through miles that stretch and oceans wide,
I feel your heart beat alongside mine.
You are the most precious thing I know,
a rare and radiant light, aglow.
In your presence, even far away,
the world feels brighter, soft as day.
Your voice, a melody I hold so dear,
a compass guiding me through fear.
I can’t imagine a life without you—
a world less vivid, dull, and askew.
But I wonder, love, in quiet hours:
am I for you what you are to ours?
Do you see in me the same rare light,
or am I a shadow that dims your sight?
Is your heart as full as mine for you,
or do I ask for more than you can do?
I’d give up everything just to prove
that my love for you is endlessly true.
I’d shed the flaws, the bad I see,
and become someone worthy of all you need.
I’d rewrite myself, erase and refine,
if it meant your heart would stay entwined.
I long to show you, in every way,
that you’re the reason I wake each day.
I’d hold you close, though you’re far from reach,
and pour my soul into every speech.
I’d cross the distance, break the divide,
just to stay forever by your side.
But I wonder still—do you dream of me?
Am I the shore in your endless sea?
Or am I the weight you carry alone,
a fleeting thought, a gentle tone?
Do I fill the cracks, or make them grow?
These doubts, my love, you may never know.
You’ve healed my wounds, erased my fears,
filled the silence of so many years.
You’ve shown me love in its purest form,
a steady flame, a soothing storm.
Yet sometimes I wonder, deep inside,
if I could ever truly reside—
not in your words, but your secret mind,
where thoughts unspoken are left behind.
Do you need me as I need you?
Do you feel this love so deep, so true?
Or am I a chapter, soon to close,
a passing story that no one knows?
I’d change myself, for better or worse,
rewrite my heart, rehearse, rehearse.
I’d bury the pieces you cannot stand,
shape myself by your careful hand.
I’d give you all, till there’s nothing to give,
just to ensure your love could live.
And if one day you no longer need
the love I offer, the vows I plead,
know this, my love, through all the pain:
my heart would break, but I’d never complain.
For loving you is worth it all,
even if someday I take the fall.
You are my everything, my sacred vow,
my reason for being, my here and now.
Though questions linger, though doubts remain,
I’ll love you fiercely, through joy and pain.
And if the answer is not what I dream,
I’ll hold on to this—our love’s brightest gleam

In the vast expanse of the night sky,
Where stars twinkle and galaxies lie,
I call upon the universe's might,
To keep evil energies out of sight.
May the cosmic forces align,
To shield me with power divine,
Let the stars above me shine bright,
Guiding me through the darkest night.
With celestial energy by my side,
I am safe, protected, and fortified,
Evil shall not come near my way,
For the universe hears me when I pray.

This rose has thorns
She let bees in
Needing to live
One sting from this
Protector
Can ****
That who pulls
The petal off a
Newborn rose
Before it blooms
Yes in sacrifice
Yet
Worthwhile
In my garden

Sometimes
I want to go back
In time
Collect everyone
I've ever known
And loved
And as a child
Put them in a box
And keep them
Protected forever

Standing in
Your shadow
Not able to see
Or feel
The light
Source...
Sometimes
It's not so easy
To just
Move

if i could go back
and hold your little hands
and kiss your forehead
and watch over you
then nothing bad would have ever happened to you
if i could go back
and play games with you
and pick you up off ground
and scare them away
then you would never would have been afraid again
if i could go back
and kiss your bruises
and bare my teeth
and wind up my fist
then they never would have hurt you again

Your callused hands
Warm me up
Like s’mores on the fire
Like some fries in the fryer
Your callused hands
Protect me
My insurance against humanity
My sword against insanity.
