Wrap her up in your arms,
Please protect her; keep her unharmed.
And any harm that comes her way,
Please darling, promise you’ll stay.
Merely your presence makes everything better,
Promise me baby, that you won’t forget her.

3 little words escape my mind,
thrown into reality,
and given the test of time.
I meant it, I did,
In fact I still do,
I wouldn’t have said it if it wasn’t for you.
The greatest gift of all,
now I’m vulnerable at best,
I gave you my love,
up to you is the rest.

She understands, she hides it well, but the battle inside of her is slowly ripping her to pieces and not a soul can tell.

No way to contain the tears; they continue to fall as though a river is pouring through her eyes.
One by one, they tell an untold story.

Dreams become reality,
only in your dreams,
take one moment,
think about it,
it’s as crazy as it seems.
Inhale, breathe in.
There’s still time,
you can survive.
Exhale, breathe out.
Prove you’re still alive.
I want to feel your touch.
Warm, gentle, but most of all safe.
I’m invincible when your arms are around me.
I feel as though nothing can harm me.
I want to hear your voice.
Smooth and deep.
Whispering kind, sweet nothings in my ear.
Winning me over with every word.
Take a little time,
away from all the lines,
unscripted,
wait-listed,
never good enough,
barely getting by.
But baby don’t cry,
step away from the crime,
you have all the power,
the power of good-bye.
You’re never wrong, or so you say.
You yell, I cry, I’m always in the way.
Never praised, only scolded,
It’s time for life to be remolded.
I can’t stand the feeling of living in fear,
I have to do something, to get away from here.
Like a puppet,
she hangs limp,
until her surroundings bring her to life.
Like a doll,
she sits frozen,
until someone else has the desire to play.
Like a flower,
she remains unnoticed,
until she is chosen for being the most beautiful.
She remains in the place she knows;
changing & no longer familiar.
Chooses to remain oblivious;
just wants to roam.
Close your eyes,
risk it all,
take a chance,
prepare to fall.
Open wide,
vision’s blurred,
I’m scared to death,
of that one word.
Butterflies, they rush into my stomach as you stare into my eyes.
Boy, you’re on my mind,
something about you stays there all the time.
A touch, a kiss, or wrapped up in your arms,
like a safety net, you’re keeping me unharmed.
Try to pretend, play it cool.
Stop the denial, you’re being cruel.
The days go by and you’re by my side,
but there’s still no escaping these butterflies.
