Guardian Lover

When you held me in your arms When you kissed me tenderly When I needed you the most You were there for me. To hold me in the storm Embrace me when I cried And whisper in my ear "I'll never let you go." You held me through the night. Watched over me in dreams. And always cared for me... When all else failed. Into the night, empty of light. You held me close and whispered "Soon, all will be well. The light will not perish." Life pass by my window. Now the light begins to fade. The darkness closes in. I cry for you, my guardian. But all I hear is echoes of what we once were. The silence presses on my ears. No longer do I hear your voice call me. Saying, "I love you." Into the night, empty of light. You held me close and whispered. "Soon, all will be well. The light will not perish." Life pass by my window.
