Standing before this porthole to infinity
And with one step it ends
Did you find some safety in it?
Staring, wishing, seeing what it could be
But I was willing to save you…

Playing games with it all
You saw amusement?
You saw truth?
I could never find out.
But I would not leave you behind…

What could happen?
Would they miss me?
Would he care at all?
These questions like needles in the air
But I didn’t give up…

Scars, torn limbs
Staring from a pool of sweat
It was your end
You could see it so clearly
But I picked up the phone…

They would never forget, I told you.
You listened.
And then we both cried.
