Memories of Pain

Memories of Pain

I look at you and I see pain
A memory of sadness surfaces again
I’d love to take away your hurt
Heal all of what’s been injured
This revived memory pressures me
To make you see as I see
I’d love to ask you why
You so often bow your head and cry
I’d like to just reach inside you
And make you see you like I do
I’d love to wash away those years
That have come to bring you so many tears
I look into your eyes
And I see your pain never dies
I’d love to make things right for you
To make you feel like you want to
These memories of yours are haunting
I can see they are still taunting
I’d love to destroy all of them
To make you happy, to destroy the problem.
