You're the Armor

A Poem by Eric Zavala

When I die
You are the charge that brings me back alive
When I'm shot
You're the Armor That makes sure I survive
And when I can't walk
You're the crutches that help me stand
You've been my strength
Since the moment you touched my hand

And without you
I have no where to go
I hope you know
That I need you more then you need me
That's something that everyone can see
So please let me love you
Even tho when I'm with you I forget what to do
Cause that's what you do to me
You make my vision blurry and it's hard to see
But with you I can see better then I have ever before
And like a drug I only want more

Because When I die
You are the charge that brings me back alive
When I'm shot
You're the Armor That makes sure I survive
And when I can't walk
You're the crutches that help me stand
You've been my strength
Since the moment you touched my hand

When your gone you're still in my dreams
Keeping me together like black leather jacket seams
And you make sure I don't fall apart
The best I can do is give you my heart
I know it's not much but it's going have to do
If I had more I would give it all to you
But sometimes I don't have anything at all
And I start to fall
But I think back to the railroad tracks by the mall
And it wakes me up from my sleep
It reminds me of how my love for you is so deep

And it shows me When I die
You are the charge that brings me back alive
When I'm shot
You're the Armor That makes sure I survive
And when I can't walk
You're the crutches that help me stand
You've been my strength
Since the moment you touched my hand

And yes you have heard all this before
But I always find a way to tell you more
Because I don't want there to be day where I stop and you don't think it's true
That I'm always think of you
That you are what helps me smile
Even if it's just for alittle while
I don't want you to not see that you make me laugh and get all red
Your the most thought of thought in my head
And that's something that I won't let you think is not true
Because Hannah marie I'm in love with you

And When I die
You are the charge that brings me back alive
When I'm shot
Your the Armor That makes sure I survive
And when can't walk
You're the crutches that help me stand
You've been my strength
Since the moment you touched my hand
