I feel your pain
I see you crying,
And I am so far from you
It was so quiet where I was
Quiet
Dark
Lonely
Not like it should be
I shouldn't be alone
And you should be safe,
But we're far from it
And I am so far from you
In the dark, I see your face
Twisted in pain
Tear-streaks down your cheeks
The colors purple and red are everywhere
You're hurt
Beaten
Bruised
Broken
And I am so far from you.
Before I can think
I see the road unfolding itself before me
I'm driving fast
There's just no time to waste
The road is helping me
Clearing the way for me
Turning all lights green for me
It wants me to hurry
To reach you
To save you
From that hell that you once called home
I'm getting closer now
As I pull up to the drive
I see most of the lights are out
It's dark
It's quiet
I hate that
I don't remember
Getting out of the car
I don't remember
Getting the key from under the doormat
I don't remember
Walking inside and up the stairs
I'm almost there now
I almost don't know where I am
Or where I'm going
Save for a dim blue light
Shining underneath a door down the hall
I follow the light
I open the door
And there you are
So close yet far away
You're crouched on the floor
Blood all over you
Crouching down low
And crying
Armor sphere in your hand
You're holding it so tightly
Your light in the dark
Your lifeline
…Until I came.
I cross the room
And kneel at your side
I reach out to you
And you shy away
A simple word
The call of your name
And you're looking up at me
As I have always looked up to you
You're crying again
I look into your eyes
Wipe away all those tears
Holding your hand
And with a whisper of words
You break
All over the floor
Into my arms
I'm here, my friend.
Thank you…..
