Motive


How can I help you?

Talk to me.

What can I do for you?

Tell me, please.

Something, anything.

Walk with me.

I will be here for you

Every day.

 

I could not help you

Abandoned.

I couldn’t stop the

Coming pain

Even when I tried

Helplessness.

I don’t have enough strength

To save you.

 

She will not come back

I promise

You’ll not be hurt again

I’ve got you

Two wrongs don’t make right

I shouldn’t

Something had to be done

I’m sorry.
