This Pain
I climb into bed beside you
Place my head upon your chest
And listen to your broken heart
Beat a mourner's procession
I kiss away your tears
Taste the salt sting on my lips
And stem the rivers tide
Upon your cheeks
I wrap my arms around you
Hold you securely
As you fall into
A million pieces
I breathe in your despair
Draw in breath so deep
That you shudder
For want of air
I would do anything
To remedy this pain
Carry it for my own
But you will not let it go
