It was your face
that got me up
each day to fight
it was your smile
your love
that lead me to act
when I wanted
so very much 
to give up
I won't let go
of the love you 
gave to me
I will wear
it with great
honor
and use this
mighty sheild,
for your love
protects me
from the weakness
inside that once
tried to rule
the day
but your love
so strong
broke my 
ememies
just because
you love me
I will always
live on
to fight.
