Poem - Within My Arms

Within My Arms

I don't have superhuman strength to hold up 50 tons,
Nor do I hold a crystal ball to see what we become,
I cannot stop a hurricane turn rapid winds to calm,
But rest assured that I can keep you safe within my arms,

I won't halt a speeding train by standing on the tracks,
I don't make crazy promises that I'd do this and that,

This world is tough and full of hateful ways to cause you harm,
But rest assured that I can keep you safe within my arms,

I can't break boulders with my clutch nor make a mountain move,
At times I cumulate fervor although it seems abstruse,
What you invoke is me holding you tighter in my palms,
So rest assured that I will keep you safe within my arms.
