Why...

Sitting here in a daze

trying not to hurt myself even more,

I think about you.

baby do you not know how much this hurts ?

knowing that one more slip,

will throw you miles away from me.

your life is falling apart right in front of us,

but you won't let me help you keep it together;

if only you would let me get close to you.

you take my love for granted

not knowing that once it is gone,

you will regret it.

i can help you,

please turn and look at me.

touch these tears,

catch them before they are wasted on this ground.

know that these are for you

know that no matter what happens

I will always be here .

I will never turn my back on you,

I love you.
