"Protect her.
Protect her heart, her mind, and her body.
Protect her emotions and her overthinking.
Protect her whole being. Make her feel safe, loved, understood, heard and looked after.
For the times when she doesn't know how to protect herself."
No words spoken, yet we knew,
a glance, a touch, love's quiet bloom.
In darkest nights we held the line,
hearts entwined, your hand in mine.
Silence grew where shadows fell,
stronger now, our quiet spell.
One look became the tide that turns,
and we became the flame that burns #X
