A spell I cast

But yours is stronger

Though you have yet to raise your wand

The look in your eyes

Causes me to ponder

I can't help but to stay longer

.

Quiet, hush--

You're in a rush--

But I hesitate to leave

You've never not responded

To any weary spell I weave

.

And as you turn to leave

I see the tenseness in your shoulders

That I'm sure was never there before

So I ask you what is wrong

But you're not listening anymore

.

Your back is turned to me

And you're running down the hall

There's no way I could catch up to you now

You've run too fast, too far

.

So tell me, you stupid, arrogant prick

Tell me, blast it all

How am I supposed to help you

If I'm not there to catch your fall?
