Fighter

You see the scars and all the pain.
You still want me with it all anyways.
You let the tears that fall down stain
 
Our clothes and sheets. You gaze
At me and still love me no matter what
Happens. I always surprise and amaze
 
You every day. Even the punch in the gut
Does not phase you one bit. You say I am
A fighter, head held high. When I shut
 
Down and feel empty you open the dam
To let me feel everything with you right
There. On the days I when I want to slam
 
The door shut on you and take flight
You pick me up in your arms to show
Me how much you care. You are my light
 
And you never try to take away my glow.
I am not living in the shadows and doubt
Anymore. I am living every low
 
And high with you. I am never in this bout
And fight alone. You are in my corner.
They should know we would never bow out.
