If I Had a Voice

If I had a voice

In what you had to say

I'd bring you hope

Hope, for a better day

If I could

Just for a while

I'd want to see that frown

Turn into a smile

If you'd listen to the words and I what I said

Maybe

Just maybe

I'd be able to bring you back from the dead

You're so lost

In everything you do

Your gracious movements

Are now just trapped in your room

I try

I really do

But every time I open a door

I see you fall a little bit more

Your teary eyes

The way you say bye

It hurts my soul

As if a part of me

Dies

But I must remain a beacon of light

In hopes that I can guide you through the night

Even if you ignore me

Even if you make me bleed

Even if you berate me

And even if you leave

I want you to know

That someone cares

And to know that you aren't the only one that thinks life isn't fair.

A.N- I actually liked this one. It's peaceful, it kind of has a, 'Guardian Angel' sort of vibe.
