Ease Her Pain
I could see she was broken,
It was so easy to tell.
The look in her eyes
Said her life had been hell.
To get all of her heart,
I knew that I could never.
With all its broken edges,
It was me it would sever.
At the same time, I could see
How much she needed someone
To help ease some of her pain,
And who wouldn't turn and run.
I knew the love she gave
Would be harsh and cold.
If I was going to love her,
I knew I had to be bold.
I couldn't bring myself to leave
And let all her sadness remain.
She is lucky I'm broken enough
That I enjoy all the pain.
