There is only so much time
before you crack and
all your flaws are on show
but with you,
I see no flaws
I see no mistakes
only a beautiful innocence
that I hope no one takes.
I understand that you cannot protect someone
from natural occurrences,
but I do not want to see you hurt
so please,
when you go against my judgement
time after time
know that I will never be the 'friend' that says
'I told you so'
trust in me that
I will be the friend that tells you,
you are not alone
and although other people go through this
you are still unique.
because you are beautiful
and kind
and loving
and special.
you are a young butterfly
just learning to fly.
and you are a starfish
floating along with the tides.
I am the sunshine,
there to keep you warm, safe and alive.
