I saw

I saw you dance
I watched you grow
I heard you sing
Like life, high and low
I saw you laugh
I heard you cry
I was there all the time
And slowly watched you die
I saw you run
I watched you fly
I heard your voice
Silently say goodbye
I saw your smile
Fake but always there
I watched your heart
Slowly rip and tear
I saw you hide
All your pain and grief
I watched you fall
Like a lonely autumn leaf
I saw your wrist
And the scars on it
I heard you scream
But all I could do was sit
I saw you give up
And let everything go
I watched everyone else
Start to understand and know
That I saw you dance
And watched you grow
As I heard you cry
And finally saw you go
