Be With You

Let me ground you
and make your load lighter
let me surround you
with a world a bit brighter
than the one that seems to haunt you
like a storm cloud above your head
let me hold your umbrella
or walk in your stead
because you don’t deserve this pain
you don’t deserve the hurt
I want to see you smile
please, pull your eyes from the dirt
and up to mine where they’ll greet you
with warmth as a crutch to hold on to
when you’re uncertain
how to carry your burden
call on me to be with you
