Protected Innocence

Live a life of luxury,
With gummy drops and teddy bears
live a life of serenity
and never know what's not fair

My angel, my sweet angel,
I'll protect you from it all,
my angel, my sweet angel,
I'll be there when you fall.

Live a life for us,
one with happiness and normality
Live a life with us,
with every bit of sanity

My Friend, my comrade,
live like never done before,
My Friend, my comrade,
within our protective core.

And we'll put ourselves out for you
and we'll keep the pain away,
Because you don't have to bare
What we go through every day.

Our depression is our own,
and we'll steal it all away,
Every fist that punches at you,
Every notion that goes your way.

Innocent you will remain,
and innocent you'll stay,
For every day I wake and have
Is to keep you that special way.


I wrote this poem originally because I read a fanfiction, Out of the Loop by FinalArc [It's in my favorites] which described Kuwabara's relationship to the group. This spawned this poem with protection of innocent people around you every day. The real message I wanted to send was how protecting someone from everything can hurt yourself more than you will realize.

The first section is about a father daughter relationship explaining how they're always there for their daughter. Personally I have a father who would protect me my whole life if he could so it was a personal touch. The second two stanzas are about Kuwabara and the Yu Yu Haukusho group, of which I own no one [Disclaimer]. The last set is wrap up.
