Left alone
Hidden from sight
Protect her from the demons
Save her from the night
Don’t let her alone
Hold her while she sleeps
Safe from the past
Show her what she means
Allow her to
See into your mind
The key lying there
Easy for her to find
Unlock your thoughts
Let her know what you feel
She’ll determine whether
Or not you are real
To figure out the things
That keep her close to you
Figure out maybe
Why you love her too

Nice rhymes.
I like the first two stanzas.
The contrast of protectiong her from all the dangers of the night... and keeping her safe.

There is a vulnerability to this girl that I love. The way she is in need of protection...wow. A few suggestions though...
"Easy fro her to find"- fro?
"Or not you are for real"- I would take out the for.
"That keeps her close to you"- I would say that keep her close to you. These are just my opinion, feel free to take it, or to not take it. Beautiful poem regarless.

Very flowing indeed, but I wonder who "she" is?
Perhaps mother earth, or maybe just speaking of yourself to a love? -

a somber tenderness - seems personal/specific as the need for protection from past memories but at the same time a great emphasis on the beauty of the simple action of understanding -
