Just me

He stays in the background where no one sees him
He let's me venture on my own
He knows I will only do what I feel meets his approval
He watches and waits
People push and pull
I stand and push back
He waits
Life trips me and I get back up
Wipe my hands and keep walking
Always thinking walk with pride
Be the woman he wants you to be
I stumble again
He waits
The people keep pushing
Lifes bumps become to big
I fall
I lay on the ground
Humbled
Tears running down my cheeks
Knowing to look up and ask him
Knowing he will reach for me
But only when I ask
Head hanging low pride getting in the way
Fighting my war in my head
He waits..
I slowly raise my head eyes still down
I try to get up again and cant
I raise my eyes to see him
We make eye contact
Hes done waiting
He comes to me
Scoops me up and saves me
Wrapped in his arms
My safety surrounding me
Feeling the calm wrap around me
Knowing he will always wait
Letting me be free
But always close by to protect me
Guide me and remind me
In his arms my pride will have to wait
Because in his arms his pride in me is all that matters
