THE PROTECTOR

I was always the “protector”
Never the “protected”
I was always there
But here I'm alone

I was the answer everyone craved
But then again,
Why I'm screaming my lungs off
In this dark room

Oh! Dear!
I was the “protector”
Never the “protected”!

They say it's easy to be,
But it's impossible
But here I am,
As an alone “protector”
As someone's “comfort”
As someone's “daily dose of hope”
And also here I am,
As a “protector”
But never the “protected”

Oh! Dear
There is a person
They were shaking,
They were begging for help
And a moment later
They got “protected” by a “protector”.

It's me but not me
It's the version of the “protector”
That I create carefully
So only I know this!
The “protector” is shaking too
but never begged for help!

That's how a “protector” raised!
That's how “I” choose to raised!

Dilushi❤️
