Safeguard

Well of course you may be filled with doubts;
that's just how Life
usually works.
And you may find hard to accept some of those;
that's just how Life
tricks you the most.
-
One thing is for sure: never doubt reaching out;
I'm always out there
thinking of you.
Even if feeling ashamed for what you just did;
I'm always out there
waiting your cue.
*
I will stand - maybe in silence - observing your path;
guarding your six,
watching your light.
I know facts about human life a little more than you;
guarding your six,
always my fight.
-
You are never alone, even if I seem to be too far away;
you can count on me
replying your call.
Even if you need me in person, no questions asked;
you can count on me
hitting the road.
*
Feel safe and secure, loved for sure, as I love you so much;
never doubt of yourself
reaching your goals.
Be honest and fair, with others around, always decent and kind;
never doubt of yourself
opening doors.
-
One day you will see that the fight was worth having;
guarding a Life
will be now on you.
My only hope is that you'll be so well prepared;
guarding a Life
will be your greatest virtue.
*
