To Save You
I stare deep into cat-like eyes.
Those damned, soulless spheres.
Your stride is slow
and you hang your head low.
Depression, no, just broken.
I want to pick you up, like a token,
polish you clean, place you in my purse,
but that would make it worse.
No matter how much I try.
I know, one day, you will die.
Sitting on that park bench,
feeding those chirping finch,
I see the soul return;
freed from that internal urn,
and I smile bright,
for I see your eternal light.
Beside me, you sit down,
I shift, you frown.
We talk, smile, cry;
at least, for now, you won't die.
