Trauma Bond

We may not share the same last name

But you’ve always felt like family just the same

You show up when the rest walk out

Held my hand through the fear and the doubt

You never needed to ask, you just always knew

The things I could never say out loud to anyone but you

We’ve been burned, we’ve been bruised

Wore each others pain like worn out shoes

But somehow I know, we’ll always make it through

You’re more then my friend, more then just a name

You’re my calm through the hurricane, my shelter in the rain

We carry each other through hell and back

We hold the pieces the other one lacks

We built a bond from the hurt and the scars

You know every corner of my heart

No one knows me like you do

No one gets me, except for you

We’ve had nights with no words

Weeks on end, so many messages I’d want to send

But we always find our way back

Even without a flashlight, I’d walk to you in the pitch black

When the world goes cold and I start to shut down

You lift me above the water, so I don’t drown

You’ve seen me broken, left barely breathing

And you still loved me without needing a reason

I’ll hold strong when you fall apart

I’ll give you every ounce of my heart

I’m more then your best friend, more then just a name

I’m the calm to your hurricane, your shelter in the rain

We carry each other through hell and back

We hold the pieces the other one lacks

We built a bond from the hurt and the scars

You know every corner of my heart

No one knows me like you do

No one gets me except for you
