I don’t know if he needs me, or if he wants me near, But I can't help wishing I could calm his fear. Whether he asks for comfort or not, I still care, I want to be the one who’s always there. I keep my face calm, though it’s hard to pretend, But inside my heart, I can’t stop wishing...

It's a promise to accept. Accept the flaws-the big and the small. It's a promise to disagree. To argue and get mad. It's a promise to forgive. To listen and...
