After all these doubts
And fear of him
I now realise
What was my sin
For when it came
And fight he must
He did not shirk
In me he trust

As his sire
Tried to take me out
He took the wound
He showed no doubt
And as I hid
From metal shards
I stayed the hand
Dealt in the cards

But just as my
Attacker thought
That she had won
My end she'd bought
He came upon
The very source
Of retribution
And of recourse

And much to shock
Of her and me
He took the point
First fired at she
And into her
He forced it deep
The cost to him
It was not cheap

And as of then
An outcast made
To be with me
He has stayed
For his own now
Want to see
The end to his
Curse'd empathy

So I can trust
And love anew
For all that doubt
Was proved untrue
And so I shall
Rest sound tonight
And dream of holding him
Close and tight
