Tossing and turning
Fighting for control
Trying to overcome the darkness
The self-doubt and insecurities.

"Shh." you say
As you sit down
Wrapping your arms around her
As you pull her on your lap.

Placing soft kisses on her forehead
Whispering softly
"Calm down, my beautiful angel
I’m here and nothing will hurt you now."

The tears subside
As you softly kiss her neck
She squirms and giggles
As you hold her tighter

"Angel, I want you
You soothe me and make me happy
Never forget you are mine
And I will be forever yours…"
