battling bare

waking in a cold sweat

shaking and scared

i want to hold you

and make it go away

protector

both weak and strong

learn when to let go

with me you are safe

let my heart be your home

my arms your shelter

and my love your safe haven

darling, be not afraid

the past is over now

you are home

i am here

This is so comforting to read. I often find myself wanting to protect the ones I love from any danger or turmoil that may be headed their way. I love 'you are home, I am here'... I think just unifies your poem and ties it neatly together, displaying a natural response to unconditional love.
