Savour

Savour the memory
Of savoured moments

Don't let it fade into
These painful thoughts
Don't let it give in to
This sense of loss

Savour the scent of you
Lingering in this room

Don't let it turn into
The smell of smoke
Don't let it slip out through
A blind window

My struggle isn't yours
Your path isn't mine to choose
But our paths have crossed
And now you're mine to lose
You don't have to share
In all the hurt I'm feeling
But just by being there
You help to start the healing
Some crosses remain yours
I can't carry them for you
But after years of loss
Please let me try to mend your wounds

We're not saviours
We don't need halos

But won't you hold on to
This sense of care
Won't you see the truth
That I'll be there
For you
