You belong to me
You are mine
I took it upon myself
To protect you
From danger, big and small

To be there for you
To wipe away the tears
And clear your mind when it’s racing with thoughts
To fill your heart with love
And allow you to be the best self for yourself
To hold on to you when you trip
And catch you if you fall
I will guide and shape you
Lead you to safety

To earn your trust
And ignite the flame of hope within you
I will stop time for you
Move heaven and earth
I will always talk to you
Explaining and educating
Forgiving and understanding
Being a pillar of strength when you are weak
Taking apart and putting you back together like new

I will be everything you needed
Not just everything you wanted
I’m always here even if not always near
I am deep inside you
Existing in you and for you always

Not a fairytale
But our reality
You and me
The world we created
Just for us
Where we can be everything
And worry about nothing

My responsibility to you
And yours to me
Is weightless
Our feelings for each other forever keeping us afloat
