WHEN...

walls keep chipping no matter how much paint is applied
minutes instantly bring you days
surroundings imobilize
escape is non existent
your next breath seems impossible

I want to be there

you reach for so much more
it's so out of reach
pounding fist is never enough
your gripping the ledge with finger tips

I want to be there

trials are full of flaw
scars can't be covered
hope is so redundant beginning has always been the tragic end

I want to be there

you lose faith
depression is always the victor
you want nothing more than to hide like christ
you long for my touch

I want to be there

you are taken for granted
all you give is abused and exploited
your constantly dead last
Kindness is mistaken for weakness

I WILL be there

To have and to hold
Give warmth from the cold
Help count the blessings
Deep affection and caressing
Shoo away demons and words of regret
Shelter and cherish through all of life's tests
I will honor and fight against raging storm
Take the first leap in front of deaths door
I will stare into your eyes and prove to you my worth
I WILL be there to move
      Heaven and Earth

WAKE UP!! THIS IS ONLY A DREAM! -I REPEAT- THIS IS ONLY. A. DREAM.
Just lay back while I place this pillow over your face.
