The Shelter

Don't judge me for my slips 'cause it will do you nothing Kiss me for the present and embrace me for the future You'll need me when you're down, And I shall be with you in your worst Don't just count how many times I stumbled Count also how many times I sheltered you from the rain And how many times I extended my arms So you could walk against the wind April 23, 2023
