I Am The Guardian

I am the Guardian of the Children.

 

I keep the nightmares away from the one who was abused by her father.

 

I lead someone to the one who was abandoned on the side of the road because no one could afford to feed them.

 

I mother those who have lost theirs.

 

I protect those who have no one left.

 

I love those who feel unloved.

 

I bring Justice to the wronged and Peace to the troubled.

 

I am the Guardian of the Children.


 

I am the Guardian of the Distressed.

 

I praise the body of the one who can find nothing but fault with theirs.

 

I hide the knives of the one who uses them to try to relieve the other pain.

 

I listen to those who need someone to talk to.

 

I love those who feel unloved.

 

I bring Justice to the wronged and Peace to the troubled.

 

I am the Guardian of the Distressed.


 

I am the Guardian of the Prideful.

 

I guide the one who is confused about their gender identity.

 

I change the ones who know that their body isn’t right for them.

 

I house those who were kicked out by someone who hates who they love.

 

I love those who feel unloved.

 

I bring Justice to the wronged and Peace to the troubled.

 

I am the Guardian of the Prideful.


 

I am the Guardian of the Dead.

 

I guide the one who was taken from their family by a tragic accident.

 

I listen to the story of the one who lived a full and happy life.

 

I promise that the next time will be better to those who committed suicide.

 

I love those who feel unloved, and those who feel loved.

 

I bring Justice to the wronged and Peace to the troubled.


I am the Guardian of the Dead.
