All night long the wind
Gnashes against the bricks
Whistles in at my window
To see if it can trick
Or frighten me
But its fury is futile
And I am safe now.
So when circumstances
Threaten
Or night terrors besiege,
A million rasping voices
Might rise
And seek to condemn you
But I am always here to comfort,
Take you in my arms
And defend you…
I am your fortress,
Your tall tower
I shield you with my body
And whisper,
You are safe now.
