How I lived

As I grew

I was told to react

Told to defend

Told to retaliate

 

When I came to you

I knew only how to torment

Only how to tease

Only how to insult

 

As you hold me

It becomes hard

To even think of anything mean

As you talk to me

I can only love you more

Only want to hold you more

 

As you keep me warm

I forget my old ways

Hold you closer

Want you more

 

Keep me from my old ways

Let me live a new life

Let me keep you happy

Let me live as a whole

Live as a saint

Wonderfully said in words that are not easily forgotten.
