Stand guard,
don't back down.
You can win
if you only try.

Sword in one hand,
shield in another,
he stands over his charge
ready to die.

He was the person
that you told everything to.
The one you went crying to.
The one who never ran out of hugs.
The one who soaked up your tears.
The one who you carried around everywhere.
The one who always slept by your side.

He's your teddy bear.

He guards over you at night,
because while you might not believe,
the monsters are still there.

They come at night
when you don't expect it
to take what they want.

Even though
you don't run to him anymore
your teddy bear remembers.

He remembers the endless love.
He remembers everything.

Every night he stands
sword in one hand,
shield in another,
ready to fight.

All for the person
who loves him the most.
