Keith

A HART STOPPED

Our paths crossed

In a time lost

Your eyes caught mine

And I froze

The sickening thud will stay with me forever

I watched you stagger

Wished I could give you wings

Or suffer in your place

For I had trespassed into your world

Caused you harm

With a ton of wheeled steel

And you suffered

Just because you live free

Unfettered by the material world I inhabit

Forgive me

Your pain burned a lesson

In this dulled brain

Though I fear we are too lost to learn

Run free

Run

Run for me

 

Run from me
