I built a moat around you,
Protecting you from me.
But you drowned in it,
Trying to get back to me.
I jumped in to save you,
But someone got there first.
And when I gave up,
They made you burst.
Later, I asked for the truth.
And you said you were okay.
But you showed me the bruise on you cheek,
When you turned away.
Is it my fault
When you shattered,
And that I wasn't there
The time it mattered?
