Lines of Safety and Love

This is the line, this is the wall we draw,

For our safety, for our peace, for our own law.

It's time to stand, it's time to declare,

Boundaries set with love and care.

Friendship’s not control, it’s a helping hand,

Respecting the secrets, understanding the stand.

We’re survivors, walking through fire,

Not your story, not your desire.

Don't ask for records, keep it silent and true,

What’s private’s ours, that much is due.

Flashbacks hit, memories sharp and fierce,

Boundaries are a shield, no room for tears.

Set the boundaries, make it clear,

Respect the space, respect the fear.

Friendship should lift, not drag down,

Stand your ground, wear your crown.

Look into my eyes, see the truth inside,

Walls up high, so I can survive.

Not ungrateful, just needing space,

Respect my pace, respect my grace.

So here’s the line, clear and strong,

A safe place where I belong.

Boundaries are love, not a fight,

Keep me safe, hold me tight.
