Saving

My heart beats but it's never steady

I'm drowning in my will to save you 

Slowly

Surely

Are you able to be saved

I consume your darkness, with a desperate need to give you my light

Your burdens course through my blood

I miss your smile

The contentment in your eyes

It was everything

Once so bright, now quickly fading

Is it too late

I want so badly to free you from your pain

Will I be enough

Will it consume us both

A future is tangible

Or Am I dreaming

Maybe I too am lost now

Lost in my fight to win for us both

I feel tired

I feel afraid

I show a facade to the world but inside I am breaking

From your hidden thoughts, I see you are further than my grasp can attain

Will you slip through my fingers

Don't go

You're safe with me
