Chapter 224

Two Can Save Two

It is not known
If one can save
Another that already
Has a foot in the grave

It has been said
That one can save themself
If they are saving another
Salvation creates itself

As the sky falls
One has not won
If the total is emptiness
To shun still equals none

As the shaking ledge collapses
Under ones unbalanced slipping feet
A steady hand extended seems sweet
To hold firm unfailingly is no easy feat

Deep within a mind
There is so much to give
To a lost frightened soul
Who yet seeks to live

Nobody
