Yosano's Poem

Thou shall not die
Thou shall not fear
Thou shall not perish
For I'll always be here

Fear not of the sword
Fear not of the hurtful words
I am here for your comfort
I am here to relieve the hurt

Thou shall not wither
Thou shall not fade
Thou shall not falter
With me, you are safe

Battle wounds, bandaged heart
I'll heal each and every scar
No matter how long, no matter how deep
I'll rid off the bruises you managed to keep

Thou shall not die
Thou shall not cry
Thou shall not weep
I promise they'll heal
