For Her
By andhaka
Please look to me
I can see you suffering underneath
Your strength crumbling down
Fear riding your soul beneath
Don’t turn around
I can see the tears filling your eyes
I know you’re falling now
But I will help you rise
You tell me you’re scared of the dark
You say you don’t know why
The shadows never cut you before
It began when he died
Please don’t stop now
You’ve finally opened up to me
I know it was hard for you
But life has no guarantee
The darkness only masks what’s been there before
Even at night the sun illuminates from behind the moon
The moon may cover our beacon of radiance nightly
But that doesn’t mean the sun shines any less brightly
