What They Cannot See

When you love someone, through a lot of stuff you'll go
Mess, stress and heartache, sometimes it will show 

Mostly when you least expect 
The hurt; it will grow

They try their very damndest to see that it is so
Scowling, snarling and sneaking; they think that you don't know

But what they cannot see, is the armor that you tow
Wrapping you up tight shielding from the blow

Love will do a lot of things to protect from the grow
It has an understanding sense, and a striking sort of glow
