last call
was all he said
as he shuffled on down
the empty walk
please just one more
she said in return
he shook his head
and drank the last
not enough for both of us
so woman you gotta go...

let me catch you
if you fall
her last words
before the crash
she was waiting and ready
but not prepared
for how fast he fell...

it's ok baby
they always come back
drying her daughter's eyes
but underneath
when her daughter wasn't listening
she muttered to herself
he better not
or I'll kill him
but she smiled outside
gave comfort
and dried the tears...

just a few more
random scenes
from the lives I see
as a spectre
a watcher
I float among them
never quite sure
how to help
