I sat there and thought I was rooted to the spot Thinking in what ifs If I was not there Would anyone care If I did not show And I concluded That none of them ever would Then began to smile I went through the day Thinking, Smiling, about that Until I saw her I owed her a gift An old promise to fulfill And then I ran off For I knew well, that Should I look her in the eye My smile would just break For I knew the look That I would receive from her Of fear and worry As she could see me And what I truly think of For she has seen it Reflected on her And that night I felt my life fade For I had done it I had made me fade But a bright light, a siren I pictured her face And then I woke up Sprawled in a bed, but not mine The wound stitched shut And again I thought Of what she may do, Should she Not see me again For, she may notice If I was never again, To give her a hug

She stopped my smile
I sat there and thought I was rooted to the spot Thinking in what ifs If I was not there Would anyone care If I did not show And I concluded That none of them ever would Then began to smile I went through the day Thinking, Smiling, about that Until I saw her I owed her a gift An old promise to fulfill And then I ran off For I knew well, that Should I look her in the eye My smile would just break For I knew the look That I would receive from her Of fear and worry As she could see me And what I truly think of For she has seen it Reflected on her And that night I felt my life fade For I had done it I had made me fade But a bright light, a siren I pictured her face And then I woke up Sprawled in a bed, but not mine The wound stitched shut And again I thought Of what she may do, Should she Not see me again For, she may notice If I was never again, To give her a hug
To the love of my life, for stopping my smile, and putting it back for the right reasons. I love you more.
