Beside You

I watched you fade away,
Into the nothing that created,
Everything you’ve ever hated.
I didn’t hear all the voices,
Chasing away all the sanity in you.

But you’re heart doesn’t break,
As easily as before.
And how could you give your love away,
To someone who threw you to the floor?
Or the days you spent beside her,
As you watched her walk through the door.

And I don’t,
Remember,
How you lost yourself.
But I know that you’ll be okay.
With me here or without me,
Here by your side.
