Too Much To Lose 1/6/13

I look at you
And I see myself
Not that long ago
And I grieve
For what you're
Suffering

But damn it
I didn't put you here
You did.
All the time we spent
Together
Compared
To all the time apart
Should show me
What I need to see

And I need to see
That this attempt to
Save yet another soul
From the hell
Of active addiction
Is not what I should be doing
You need to do it

I'll be there with encouraging words
I'll be there if you need to talk
But I can't be there to help you
Because you know where that would
Lead me
And I have too much
To live for now...
Too much to lose,
And I won't lose him
For you
