You

I will listen to the stories,

the ones you’ve never told,

I will laugh at all your jokes,

even when they seem old,

i will hold you hand and tell you,

all the things you need to hear,

i will hold your body close to mine,

and whisper in your ear;

that you’ll never fear the thunder,

not when I’m around,

you’ll never have to feel the pain,

it won’t even make a sound,

you won’t have to stop and wonder,

if the things i said were true,

for I will always be here,

right there next to you.

But I don‘t think thats enough,

especially not for you,

because when it all gets tough,

you’ll leave me like they do,

without a second thought,

pack up your bags and leave

and i will sit here,

entire distaught,

struggling to breathe.

all i want is to be happy,

like the birds singing their song,

and when i think it’s going right,

i couldnt be more wrong.
