Recovery

Time keeps on slipping,
there's so much to say,
but my words keep tripping,
right in my way,
I can't get it right,
everything seems wrong,
then you come in sight,
and help me along,
it's like you're a part of me,
I hope that you know,
deep in the heart of me,
I can't let you go,
so please keep helping me up to my feet,
if ever I should fall back down,
whenever I stumble and taste defeat,
you're the one who won't let me drown,
and just so you know,
I really need you,
please don't let go,
I never would cede you,
you're the best thing I've known,
the only thing that's real,
due to the love you've shown,
you helped this heart heal...
