Save You

You'll never know it,
but I see you
and the first thought
in my mind is

"Oh God,
I'm gonna lose him..."

You'll never see it,
but when you leave
I go to my room
and I cry,

because I wonder...
"will I ever see him again,
or will the next time be
on his funeral bed?

You'll never hear it,
but when you die
a piece of my heart will
break off and die with
you

and
when you laugh,
my brain tucks it away
in some secret compartment
for later, on a rainy
day

and
when you smile,
all I want to do is
take a picture,
so

I have something
left of you.

and you'll never know,
I'll never say it,
because I will break down
and cry,

but
sometimes I wish
I could save you...
