My Reflection

I will protect you
That is what I'd like to say
But whatever I try to do
It never comes out okay

I can never show you the sky
I cannot relinquish your fears
I cannot teach you how to fly
All I can do is wipe away your tears

Maybe you won't believe me
Not trust the things I've said
Maybe you won't see
Until we are in our bed

I hope you wont see my nightmare
Filled with the things I left unspoken
I want you to always care
And never to be broken

I am here to take your pain
To stand strong for you
Give you an umbrella for the rain
And keep you safe too

But I made a wrong choice
I listened to my heart
Ignoring your pleading voice
And accidentally tore you apart

now all i can do is say sorry
while looking at my reflection
