Why Wouldn't I?

You watch me silently shake
As my sleeping mind puts me through hell
As memories replay
Horrible things I have yet to tell
My two favorite words, "You're safe."
The horrible things that happen to be
Overlap the good things
That rarely happen to me...
How can you love me?
You hold me tight
Afraid to ever let go
Always leaving so sadly
Running with a spirit low
Two tortured minds
They felt so alone
Now joined together
By love's gentle tone
How do I get through this?
You have to leave
It will be years
My one and only
I'll wait I promise
Why wouldn't I?
