I had a moment there When everything was clear And I knew without a doubt Where to go from here And then the shadows fell And you slipped away Into the darkness I could not hang onto you As hard as I tried As much as I was willing to sacrifice I lost my focus And stumbled around Turning circles in a mild panic Until I finally gave out When my eyes adjusted I stood there lost In the mad rush of confusion The distance had become enormous When I stabilized and my vision cleared The world was a different place I found myself looking At an unrecognizable horizon I blinked my eyes in disbelief It had happened so quickly Steeling myself to move I took a deep breath I felt my resolve solidify I had a moment there But I could not stay The world still needs to be navigated I must make my way You are comfortable and safe I must step away And continue this journey To its eventual end
