A figure approaches me

One light after another illuminating behind the figure

Finally able to see what I am laying on is concrete


I look to my left,

A woman with nothing left.

Statued in the middle of a descending line

Could this be how I met who is now mine?


Headlights of the wicked charging at her

My head impacted her leather

Tackling her away from death


Now sobbing in my arms

She has a tight grip on me as if she has done harm

Not able to speak,

I embrace her, even though I am weak


I raise my dead head,

Looking down the barrel of lead.

Suddenly, I wake in a bed.


The figure is still there.

The warm body is still there.

The silhouette of the street embraces me.

It's dark soul spreads around and it only could be

There is more that I need to see
