I Was Never There

Once when she was falling I had not paid attention to her crying, once when she was calling I was not there... My mind was not here, and I just did not see. I did not see when she was falling I was not there for her crying I just was not here when my name it was she had been calling. For me she was calling, and I just could not see and for her I was not here, while she was falling. during her crying, I was never there... I was never there, where she was calling. and when she was crying I just could not see that she was badly falling I was not here.... My mind was never here, my mind was never there, while she was falling, and while she was calling. I refused to see, and I ignored her crying... Ignoring her crying, I was not here. I just couldn't see, nor my mind was not there while she was calling, and while she was falling... I was not there, for her calling... and during her falling, I was not here... clearly, I did not see...
