One day

This goes to everyone who wanted to make it
but they couldn’t take it
the world had to take their soul and break it
and even I couldn’t save it
I’m sorry for the calls I didn’t make
the skin I didn’t see lost
the pattern had laid itself to be clear
but so cleverly disguised
If only the signs were clearer
but they were; the eyes were closed
and now the stars shine with one less lens to watch
maybe the spirits dance with the lost tonight
but for now I stand here still
I serve to protect and help
hopefully it’s enough one day
