Through the Storm

Somewhere deep inside

Below the blackness, below the lies

A love there hides…



Deep in your eyes I see

A person,

Someone who helped me be

Who I am

Who I know has that love for me…



He carried me

Through the storm,

Above the wind,

He kept me warm,

He only pushed me away

With hope

That someday

I could become

What I needed to be

A stronger gurl,

He set me free

He loves me…

And I can only say

I love him

In the same way.



We waited

For things to change

He wanted them to

But they stayed the same

He was tired of waiting

So he turned away

Lost all his hope

He was scared

But still we pushed our way

Through the storm

He held my hand

And kept me warm

He told me

It will be okay

I wanted to believe him

For just one day

I couldn’t

Until I heard him say…



I carried you

Through the storm,

Above the wind,

I kept you warm,

I only pushed you away

With hope

That someday

You could become

What you needed to be

A stronger gurl,

I set you free

I love you…

And you can only say

You love me

In the same way.



From that point on

We became

What we needed to be

The stronger love

We were set free

He held me

Through the storm

Above the wind

And kept me warm

He told me he loved me

Every day

I believed him

When I heard him say

I love you

Will you stay with me?

You are the one I need

The one I want to…

Be.
