I see the pain in your eyes,
The tears that you cannot hide.
I know the darkness that you feel,
The thoughts that fill your mind.

I want to take your pain away,
To make the darkness go.
But I can’t, my darling child,
This is your journey to go.

I can only be here for you,
To listen and to hold you.
To tell you that I love you,
And that I believe in you.

I know that you are strong,
And that you can get through this.
But I also know that it is hard,
And that you need my help.

So please, let me help you.
Let me be your shoulder to cry on.
Let me be your voice of reason,
When the darkness tries to win.

I love you, my darling child.
And I will be here for you,
No matter what.
