You laid yourself down while I battered at your vulnerability and ran over your willingness to open yourself up. You forgot to retaliate when I pierced emphasis at your flaws. You abandoned selfish desires just to feed mine. You gazed at the brittle and haggard skin I was wearing, and told me you were proud to have me. You looked into my eyes and told me I was beautiful to the world and (most) beautiful to you. I took a tumble, and you promised me you would aid me support through this rough.

You haven't got the slightest clue how sincerity wells gratitude within me at the notice of change. And I know you are the only one who would never impose judgement onto me when I say to you that I love you.

I hid myself from failure and fear
O my dear you're a threat to the bad in us all
They tell themselves that each word from your lips
Or the grace in your eyes overcomes any fall

Over the twilight you're listening for me
Darling, go to sleep
Cradled by moonlight, I'm dreaming we'll be
Loved so deep

Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string
Till you cut through my tether and changed everything
From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same
So I darted back quickly to spell out your name
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite
You'll tell them you're proud of my marvelous flight

Don't hide yourself inside till I'm old
O my dear you're a threat to the bad we all see
I'm beside myself for the touch of your lips
Or the grace of your eyes that can see good in me
