I’ll Die To Protect You

You don’t hear my voice, but I’m right here,
standing close when things get unclear.
We don’t need words to say what is true,
I’ve got your back, I’ll fight for you.
Even when the world feels cold and rough,
you’re not alone, we’re strong enough.

There’s quiet strength nobody sees,
but trust me, I’m tougher than it seems.
When the noise fades out and the night pulls near,
I’m the shield that’s guarding you, my dear.
No need to speak what we’ll never say,
we’re linked like that in every way.

When dark thoughts try to fill your mind,
Remember I’m patient, steady, kind.
You don’t have to carry all alone,
I’ll be your strength when hope feels gone.
We’re in this fight side by side,
silent but fierce—with nothing to hide.

I write the words that don’t get out,
for when we both begin to doubt.
No fancy talk, no need to show,
just real trust in what we know.
I’m here to guard all parts of you,
strong and steady, through and through.

Even on days when fear takes hold,
I stand firm, brave and bold.
Though I’m quiet, my heart is loud,
here for you, always proud.
We don’t need speech, just trust and fight,
together, we’ll make it right.

So if the world feels cold and strange,
and nothing ever feels the same,
remember this quiet vow I keep:
I’ll guard you always, even in sleep.
No words needed—just know it’s true,
I’ll die to protect you.
