Wounded Warrior

Brave Warrior
 With me you can set your armor aside
 For I have proven worthy, I am bona fide 
 Our painful past, together we’ll conquer and divide
 We’ll bury the bottles filled with all the tears that we’ve cried

 Wounded Warrior
 Please put down your sword and shield
 Expose to me all your scars and heart concealed
 I’ll hold sacred and accord dignity to all that you revealed
 Hand in hand, we’ll do what it takes to be completely healed

 Protective Warrior
 Rest your weary tortured body next to mine
 I will nurture you and love you if you feel so inclined
 Safe in my arms, you’ll experience the peace for us designed
 Together we’ll make our own world and what love is we will redefine
