I didn't look twice for disaster.
A simple glance satesfied me.
I never realized the risk involved.
Never felt the need to see.

One moment, he was next to me,
Helping me survive.
Now I don't know what to do,
Don't know if he's alive.

I wish for one more second chance,
Another chance at love.
I wish a chance to try and catch
The fleeing turtle dove.

If this message ever reaches him,
I only want to know
Why he had to leave me here.
Why did he have to go?

I close my eyes and draw a breath,
Wishing for my last.
I close my eyes to forever forget
My troubles; safe at last.
