Out of Reach

your eyes shone blue and sparkled
smiles lingered on your lips
bells tinkled when you laughed
you made all around you happy

 

then you fell into the pit
so many of us tried to help you
you chose not to grasp our hands
reaching down to pull you out

 

so many loved and wanted you
were you frightened by our need
afraid of being swallowed up
by the lonely hungry hordes

 

time has taken what we had
friends forget as memories fade
love has given way to loathing
desire dwindled down to scorn

we won't be your fool again

She had no choice. She

She had no choice.
She couldn't reach up.
Her arms were tied
As she screamed for help.
Nobody could reach her.
and so she fell
right into the pit
of a fiery hell.
