I cannot think of

any other word

at the present moment that

means more to me than this one

 

A word that has given me

hope

for what is to come, no matter what

may be or have been

 

To hear it spoken

in my most desperate hour

can save me from any of my

tears and terrors

 

The breath from the lips of

angels, my guardians, my protectors,

to whom I am forever

grateful

 

What were once

simply seven letters now light

a fire of courage in my heart

to face foes and fears

 

No time has there

ever been in which this simple

word has not brought me

solace and serenity

 

A promise

of dedication that I can

neither ignore nor deny, my grace,

the everlasting light in my life

 

Defeating my pride,

I humble myself before those

who speak it with such

soothing sincerity

 

That nothing will ever be

too great to break the bond of

caring and compassion

between us

 

Whatever the future holds in store,

you and I

will always be there

to help each other through

 

Thank you

 

Anytime
