See me,
As simple as I am,
As complicated as I can be,
Like the man I know and see;
A lion and a lamb.
Know me,
Inside my heart and soul,
Soft – with so much love to give,
Hard – defending life we live,
Step by step I gain control.
Hold me,
And feel what I can do,
The passion inside is growing,
My love for you is showing,
I can feel yours growing, too.
Love me,
And I'll love you forevermore,
Be the one that turns your day around,
I'll fill you up and never let you down,
So much happiness is in store.
Promise me,
Nothing more than I desire,
Just love me with all your heart,
Let's make today our brand new start,
Take my hand, we'll walk through fire.
Free Me,
Like I know you do each day,
You save me and I save you,
After all that we've been through,
I'm your hero come what may.

welcome to the site, I really enjoyed this piece, it has a good flow to it, and had a wonderful meaning to it, but you may want to consider taking out the extra copy in the author's notes. makes for a long page.
I hope you enjoy your time here.
