I Will Not

By: Beth Ann Rock

I will not try to warn her
Of the hurt that you will cause
I'll just tell her not to cry
when you are lost.

I will not tell her to be careful
And you are easy to lose
And I will not try to warn her
Of her soon-to-be blues.

I will not try to steal you
And take you from her arms
And I will not try to warn her
I will not cause you two harm.

I will not try to take away
The smiles that you two share
And I will not try to tell her
That you do not care.

I will not try to interfere
Although my stomach is in knots
And just because I love you
I will not . . .
