My Word, My Bond

"My Word, My Bond" There were days I lost the fight Chasing wrong instead of right Bad habits pulling at my soul Stress and anger taking hold I slipped, I stumbled, broke and bled I doubted every word I said Yet through the wreckage and the rain You stood beside me in my pain You saw the man I tried to hide You stayed when others left my side You held my heart with patient hands You taught me how to rise again You trusted me when trust was thin You loved me when I could not win You never asked for more than truth You never gave up on my youth And now I stand before your eyes No fear, no mask, no more disguise I make this vow and speak it strong My word is bond, it won't go wrong I promise you with all I am To be your shelter and your man To never break, to never fall To stand for us through every wall For every time you held me near For every fight you fought through fear I thank you now with all my soul With you, at last, I am made whole I love you Lev
