Not Our Forever

I can't stop them from
Breaking your spirit

But I can promise
To mend it

I can't stop them from
Taking away everything

But can promise
To give you what you need

I can't tell you
They won't come after you

But I can promise to hold
Your hand through the storm

You will not just be safe
You will know comfort

You will not just
Have what you need

You will have everything
You've always wanted

You will not just survive
But you will live

All I ask
Is that you

Hold on to my words
A little tighter than theirs

And I will promise
To keep them

This is not our forever
It is simply part of our walk
