HI’s Touched Down
You watched from a far as worlds crumbled and hi chased downs when living hi came tumbling down. The rights crossed wrong and living straight meant living strong, a weight left dead cast to a burden to build your own life and leave one uncertain. The curtains closed and then they opened, to let in life and save one from hurting, what once was burdened will pay its dues, when pain heals hurt to cure itself with minds confused.
You stood aside while it devoured a person took a heart and turned a lion a coward, what once was bright became burnt out, to watch a flame go out is far worse pain than to be the flame itself. To watch em come and watch em go can drain a soul and take its shine the watching eyes fade to wander and make a loving heart miss its beauty
You seen a withered shell of person. A version of what use to be. You watched, you heard, you listened you learned. They lost, they dug deeper and ended up with nothing.
