"I'm Here"

Don't let your tears fall

From your child's eyes

They need not know why

Their mommy cries

They need not know

the hits you take

or that your love for daddy

is predominantly fake

Don't put them in the middle

Never let them see

The fights are between you and him

Let them be free

I know it's not my business

and I don't mean to pry

I'm thinking of the children

You really need to try

I'm here for you now

as I'll always be

friends til the end

you and me

I'm here to catch you

before you fall

Your friend to lean on

When your back is against the wall

I'll pick you up

wipe the tears

With me by your side

You have nothing to fear

I'm your shouder

When you need to cry

the voice of solace

when you hope to die

Don't forget

I'm always near

your friend until the end

here to kiss away your tears

When you decide

to walk away

you and the kids

have a safe place to stay...
