Healers & Protectors

I was forged in fire, built to defend,

Heart like armor, afraid to bend.

Fought my battles, never asked why,

Then you came like peace from the sky.

In your eyes, the war inside me ceased,

No more chaos—just steady peace.

Didn’t know what love was supposed to be,

Until silence fell, and you set me free.

You came in like thunder, scarred and bold,

But I saw the warmth you never showed.

You held the world on your wounded back,

I saw your cracks and loved you like that.

You protect, but I know your pain,

Still I chose you again and again.

You never had to hide your fears—

I’m the healer who wipes your tears.

My demons are silent in her presence,

That’s all you’ll ever need to feel the essence.

Our love runs deep, past flesh and bone,

In each other’s arms, we found home.

The healers have to marry the protectors, they say…

I never understood—‘til she walked my way.

Now I see what destiny had to show,

You’re the reason I’m whole, the light in my soul.

I used to fear love like a losing fight,

Now I rest easy in your light.

You didn’t fix me—you just stayed,

And somehow the dark just slipped away.

You don’t need to carry it all alone,

I’m your safe place, your solid stone.

Love is more than just being strong,

It’s knowing where your heart belongs.

My demons are silent in her presence,

That’s all you’ll ever need to know about our essence.

How deep love flows, no need to pretend,

We’re each other’s beginning, middle, and end.

The healers have to marry the protectors, they say…

Now I know why—it’s the only way.

You protect my heart, I heal your pain,

Together we dance in sun and rain.

“I never knew peace ‘til I met you.”

“And I never knew love could feel so true.”
