Midnattsol

As I stood in the shade there beside him
and as eyes turned to a paler shade of crimson
as I felt cold blood waves running down my spine
then I knew he wouldn't return
Maybe I should have known (better)
some things we just have to bear
I thought I could - still can't
I saw it all coming down
That's what life's all about
experience the unknown
now I know I'd rather not
(sometimes) fear is our only foe
