A Martyr, I Have Become

As there is the sun for the moon
A flower for the bountiful soil
A drop of tear for every eye
A picture to paint for every artist
There is a martyr for an angel.

As there are lyrics for every song
A word for every story
A sound to break the silence
Companionship to end the solitude
There is a martyr for an angel.

As there is light for utmost darkness
Color for all the black and white
As there is sweetness for the bitter
As there is forgiveness for the unforgiven
There is a martyr for every angel.

As there is warmth for the cold
Freedom for the held back
As there is guidance for the lost
A lesson for every student
There is a martyr for an angel.

As there is assurance for the weary
A drop of water for every thirst
As there is a morsel for every hunger
A cure for every sickness
There is a martyr for an angel.

The martyr wonders when she will be granted of her plea
Don't wait until everything is gone before you see
Let not so many broken promises she will have to endure
Before you take her in your arms with her love so pure.

Before it is gone, be the sunlight to her life
Symbolize the flower she toiled hard to protect
Let every tear that falls from her eyes be of laughs from you
Become the perfect picture she had always wished to draw
Realize how much of a martyr she is for you.

Let her make your name every lyric for her every song
Let her make your name every word of her every story
Become the sound that will break the silence of her mind
Let her be with you when she is with no one
Realize how much of a martyr she is for you.

Before it is over, become the light of her life
The color that will forever change her perception
Let her embrace you with all sweetness when you are at your lowest
Let her forgive those who continue to doubt you
Realize how much of a martyr she is for you.

Become her beloved warmth when she is cold
Be her freedom, her happiness, her dearest
Guide her when she is lost
Become her most prized lesson as she grows with you
Realize how much of a martyr she is for you.

Before she leaves, be her assurance when her heart is weary
Become the solution to her thirst for purpose
Satisfy her hunger in finding her life's meaning
Become her cure even if she can never be healed
Realize how much of a martyr she has become for you.
