Keep me safe

Within your arms

From all those nightmares

Invading my mind.

Bad thoughts and memories,

Kiss them all away.

Fear of rape —

Make it disappear.

Fear of abandonment —

Don’t make me feel alone.

Arms wrapped around me;

Barier of safety —

Don’t let go…

Tears that fall,

Wipe them away.

Frown that feels permanent,

Erase it with a smile of your own.

You lend me

Courage;

Safety;

Happiness.

Do yo even know this?

Keep me safe

Within your arms

From all those nightmares

Invading my mind.

Bad thoughts and

Painful memories —-

Just kiss them all away…
