Don’t Look Down

by Ghost Helwig

 

*******

 

 

You were the one beside me in my bed

You were the one who would never leave my head

You were the one I stood beside

You were the one who never made me hide

 

***

 

And I could never see just how much that meant

I could never see until all my chips were spent

I was always too blind to see before me

I never thought a man as smart as you could ever adore me

 

***

 

Yet here we are and I don’t know what to do

I was never the one who could fill in a part of you

I’m never going to be the one who’s brave

I’m never going to be the one who knows how to save

 

***

 

But if you’re looking for someone who’ll always have your back

I have always been very good at that

I can always be the one who cares

Who spends every waking hour dedicated to being there

 

***

 

Because if you want me I’d never turn you down

You’re the one who never lets my smile fade to a frown

And though I know living in the clouds means one day we’ll hit the ground

For now-

     We just won’t look down
