Laura Breidenthal Poet Free verse

Guardian Strength

I have always been
your shadow—guarding 
your heart from hurt, 
your mind from chaos.

Rest assured I watch you
only with loving intent—
that I love you with all
my guardian strength.

Rest easy in this present darkness,
for our hearts are one.
I will never abandon you. 
I will fight for your worth.
