Got Your Back … Jaden Massaro

by Jaden Massaro

I don’t blame you for falling, Just for staying on the ground. I don’t blame you for sinking, Just for swimming down.

I don’t blame you for retreating, Just for surrendering where you stood. I don’t hate you for what happened, Just for thinking that I would.

You can turn your back on me, but I’ve still got it. I won’t burn this bridge until you walk back across it. You’d better watch your back because I’ll stand my ground. I won’t leave this crossroads until you turn back around.

And when you step back onto that path, wait for me –I’ll be your solid ground, your bridge to safety. With only my hands between us and defeat, I’ll be there, even if we crumble under their feet.

I’ll never blame you for falling, Just for staying down for good. I’ll never hate you for what happens, Just for thinking that I could.
