A loved one
September 22, 2012
The pacing of her footsteps
Quick as an old sin
Before I knew it she was in
The same old state again
My eyes swam with tears
But a fire I held true
I hugged her shoulders
I couldn't tell her I was blue
I held her tight
As I tried to make the mood light
As long as I was around
She wasn't giving up that fight
I held my tears
And swallowed my fears
And prayed I could hold on tight
