If I was a fire, I would keep you warm

Till you don’t need to rub your arms

And stay with you through the cold night

And drive away your fears with my light

…

If I was a breeze on a hot summer day

To you, so carefully I would find my way

Yearning for so long and for so much

 I will cool you with my touch

…

But I am just a little boy with love to give

And sweet words that have helped me live

And I can only write a poem for you

And hope that you would love me too

Rest your fears upon my shoulders

Of them, I will take care

Hesitation may be older

Than the love that we share

…

If your faith in me is shaken

And my words do not sound true

Let my soul and pride be taken

And lay them all unto you

…

Raise a fire to take my test

And let me pass through the flames

And if I were to come second best

Go ahead and erase the names

…

But do not put me through the test a second time

And have me repeat the pain

I may consider it a crime

My skin won’t take the flames again

The night has covered the skies

In eternal deceptive disguise

The winds blow the leaves afar

Waiting for the darkest hour

…

Is there a familiar face

In this cruel and haunted place?

Have I left behind a trace

Of shallowness and disgrace?

…

Is there a way out

Of all the confusion and doubt?

Hear me scream and shout

When I don’t know what this is about

…

Should I let the dark frighten me?

Should I just let the nightmares be?

It may be hard now for me to see

But I know the light will set me free

…

Waiting for the darkest hour

To come and reveal who we are

If the truth has flown too far

I’ll bring it back and let it scar
