I will never forget

Borrowed beneath my skin,
Beneath expression and eyes,
Farther then I've ever known,
It lingers in my cries,

Swept deep inside my heart,
Torn and still tearing,
I cannot tell you how,
But I'll always keep caring,

As I watch your lives unfold,
In love, beauty and grace,
A tear falls to shatter,
And I know I've lost my place,

I'd always take your hand,
Guide you if I could,
You'd always do the same,
And you always would,

For a while I've been blind,
But this is real and here,
I can't hold your wings,
For alone I will fear,

This prickles at my eyes,
As my mind calls to let,
My lip trembles with no word,
But I will never forget,

You have changed my life,
I regret nothing but regret,
Alone I touch no soul,
But I will never forget,

I wish you'd take my hand,
Guide me along with you,
I will never forget,
Each moment I miss you.
