listening to my shattered heart.

Tucking me into bed, you wipe the tears away,

guarding me this night, among the stars.

Consoling worries away with the wind,

you whisper your bedtime lullaby.

Holding this heart, you take extra caution,

washing the pain away, out with the tide.

The dawn is breaking, slowly you depart,

leaving me alone, like the others.

Enduring the day, without you here,
