Need To Live
How we all try our best to hang on,
Know some of us can't fight that
long.
We watch as it's pain over takes you,
We watch in sadness because this is
all we can do.
I sensed your frailty within the tone
of your voice,
If we could change places, I'd make
that choice.
I don't want to lose you now or
ever,
I plead and plead for the day your
better.
Such words of truth from the heart,
But know this is but a small part.
Yes! At times it feels we can't win,
But truth is, you have the strength
within.
Focus on all your grins and true
friends.
Then happiness grows with no
depends.
But those days seem so far away
from today,
No! I will never leave you alone or
agree to walk away.
For this world would dim without
you here.
Know your worth through me, my
Dear.
You are my friend, my only one who
knows me,
Please never give up, please live.
Oh, please believe.
There are others who would grieve
to see you go,
With your smiles, laughter, all the
things we love and know,
That makes you worth every night
we spend by your side,
If you gave up, you wouldn't be the
only thing that died.
We cling to to each other for
strength to overcome,
Through God above, thy kingdom
come, thy will be done,
This time is not your time, so please
hang on,
And know you don't fight alone, no
matter how long.
Believe and see how much you are
loved by us,
If you lose hope let us help you to
refocus.
Release the negative and revive in
the positive,
Because I care enough to see you
live...
