You Keep Me Poem by Guarded Heart

You keep me from
The terrors of this life
The things that would haunt me
And hurt me if they could
And when i crash and burn
You keep me from going under
And bring me back to reality
Remind me that i'm human
And i can't do it all

You keep me from falling
Into a dark hole
And if i do fall
You light my way
Tell me its ok to break down
Tell me it makes me stronger
Even though i feel weak

Keep me a little while longer
And i promise to make good
All your efforts, they were not waste
Keep me from the shadows
And what lurks there, waiting

Thank you for keeping me
Whole, encouraged, and alive
