Seeing

I saw the pain
in your eyes
That look
it couldn't lie

I saw the tears
ready to fall
When you passed me
in the hall

I saw your smile
slowly fade away
Was it because
I could not stay

I saw life
in the simplest way
Seeking joy
day after day

I saw things
no-one else could
But, it didn't mean
that I should
