Holding You
Let me wrap you in my words
So I can hold you in some way
When love can’t be heard
In the dark lonely place in which you lay
Your beautiful body held in your own embrace
Tears streaming down your handsome face
Soaking the pillow I wish I could be
To cradle you within the heart of me
Be like a child in my arms
Cry with no shame
Trust I’ll hold you without harm
Hear you and cast no blame
I know you’ve been wronged
But you’re safe in my love
Release the demons you’ve been holding so long
We are the deep connection you’ve dreamed of
I see you with no expectations
Love you with no exceptions
Hold you in the beauty of who you are
No need to run
We can just be
You and me
Nothing else
Let me wrap you in my words
So I can hold you in some way
When love can’t be heard
In the dark lonely place in which you lay
Your beautiful body held in your own embrace
Tears streaming down your handsome face
Soaking the pillow I wish I could be
To cradle you within the heart of me
Be like a child in my arms
Cry with no shame
Trust I’ll hold you without harm
Hear you and cast no blame
I know you’ve been wronged
But you’re safe in my love
Release the demons you’ve been holding so long
We are the deep connection you’ve dreamed of
I see you with no expectations
Love you with no exceptions
Hold you in the beauty of who you are
No need to run
We can just be
You and me
Nothing else
