A love letter
Precious love
Where I will hold you close
And keep you safe
From the fire that scroches souls
From the water that chips at your spirit
But more than that
I will not suffocate you in my embrace
I will allow you to take flight
To fly high and soar
Remebering you were a gift
But only for a moment in time
To hold but not to keep
I was made strong
Not for glory or splendor
But to keep you safe
Precious love.
