Beloved

As the sun shined down upon the street

Where I sit anxiously waiting to meet

I often wondered if you thought twice about me

Or gave in to the idea my chaos would bring


You’ve wrapped around me on nights I agonized in pain

I think it’s because you’d know I’d do the same

Your soul stretches beyond the body it is contained

You beg to be free mentally from the reigns

I want to break you free from those chains


I treasure the moments so often silent

Because we both know the world is often too loud

There’s too much hurt in life and the world is violent

But with you, the overwhelming feelings become quiet


We may not know what depths the world has for us

But I know my shoulders can carry it without being buried

If you were weary and needed rest

I would ignore the world and grab you to carry


You are the stars to my night

The sun to my day

I want to make you smile more than I might

To let you know, we will always be okay
