hold

  You look at me,
  With tears in your eyes,
  That's how I know,
  That's how I always know,
  That you've done something stupid,
  I look down,
  And I can see the drops of blood,
  Falling to the ground,
  I take your hands in mine,
  Slowly ease them open,
  Then I can see the cuts,
  All the way across your palms,
  They're so deep,
  But they've already started clotting,
  They're going to heal,
  But you'll be scarred forever,
  You look so sad,
  You look so small,
  I just wanna reach out, 
  And hold you,
  But you're dangerous,
  I know it,
  I can still see it in your face,
  I can still remember my screams,
  But I hold you anyway,
  You need me to hold you,
  So I do,
  I hold you,
  I hold you tight and close,
  I hold you because part of me still loves you.
