He lays down in my arms, I wrap him tight.
He won't be left, He won't be hurt.
I try to shield his pain,
I keep them away.
His heart has hurt, It's been broken.
I mend it with a kiss.
I lay him to sleep.
His heart? Hopefully mine to keep.
So sweet, so pure.
I can't let him be defeat
He cries, he screams.
I rush, I lean.
A kiss upon is head.
A few words are said.
"I love you" I said.
I kissed him goodnight.
He cried with fear.
I didn't leave, instead I drew near.
I covered him up, and sang him to sleep.
His weary eyes were heavy,
his breathing was shallow.
Was this the end?
No. Just the beginning.
I wrapped him in her arms.
One last kiss goodnight.
I said "I love you" one last time.
and he fell asleep.
In her arms, he lay resting.
My heart was warm, my gaze was soft.
I knew who he was, who he could be.
I saw the potential.
And if had it meant to be?
I knew it would be.
