| The Light Keeper |
| Can I have a piece of your light? You see I'm lost I'm in a dark place I can't see where to go I was left here By my old light I should have noticed She was getting dim I had never seen a light As bright as hers It enthralled me I couldn't stop looking Maybe I got used to it And didn't notice the dimming Or maybe I made it dim By getting used to it I always expected It would last I thought loves batteries Were endless Then I blinked And it was dark I called out for it But it never answered It never shown again It never warmed me again It could have blinked I told it once I wasn't a light keeper Maybe that's why it left It found a light keeper Now I need a new light Can I have a piece of yours? |
