Here
She's there...
Right within my reach
at the end of it all
She's there
After wading through the mire
with nothing but my lantern
And my little broach of hope
She's there
I see her
Standing in the middle of the gloom
She's crying
But she's there
I push onward through the muck
I swing my arms
I pump my legs
She's still there
She's looking around now
Searching for something
Her features becoming ever more prominent as I close...
And I can't believe she's there
My heart's pounding
My breath is fast and heavy
But I haven't given up
This entire time apart
I thought she was done with me
But I was right to keep up hope
Because she is still there
Someone crosses my view...
a male silouhette
She looks at him
She fakes a smile
I wait... here
He wraps his arms around her
She looks over his shoulder
at me
Still here
He leads her away
I shout but nothing comes out
She looks back at me
I sound out this time with all the force I have left
"I'm always here!!!"
She smiles...
And a renewel washes over me
The gloom and the mire fall away
She's a thousand miles further away
But in my sight
She's still there
And I
Am still here
