You make me feel.
And today you made me feel brave
Like nothing in the world could make me feel afraid
Seemingly shielded in my bullet proof vest.
My heart is well protected and wrapped inside my chest.
And yesterday you made me feel alive,
No longer looking backwards, nor drifting with the tide.
No need to think about or count my life in hours.
When I wander through the garden, I stop to smell the flowers
And only yesterday you made me feel warm.
Like nothing in this world could ever do us harm.
Sometimes when the obstacles ahead seem high.
You give me wings and encourage me to fly.
And tomorrow perhaps I’ll feel defeated.
Like life and motivation are depleted.
You’ll bring me up my morning cup of tea.
And another version of our life you’ll make me see.
Sometimes I’m far too introspective.
You arrange my jumbled feelings into orderly perspective
Times when I really hit the wall.
You make the obstacles insignificant and small.
You see I’m a crumbling, bumbling man.
Love and life are slipping through my hands.
Surviving on the moments that we steal.
Alive because of how you make me feel.
