Precious

She crossed the street and hit my world
I hurt this skinny baby girl and suddenly it all fell down
It went so fast, a second that lasts
An eternity, future to past
Thinking about it I break down

Ill always feel the shame,
I thought I left you unconscious; your life; just like your name is precious
Precious like a pearl, sorry little girl

Im so sorry for what Ive done
I never never meant to hurt you
Gather all your arms
When all is said and done
No ones ever safe
Safe from harm

Its hard for you to realise
that in this I am traumatised
already Just by the sound
so quick to blame while you evade
the responsibility, my part Ill claim
but is it really fair to pin me down

Ill always feel the shame
I thought I left you unconscious; your life just like your name is precious
Precious like a pearl, forgive me little girl

You walked onto my life
You Crashed into my entire world
Watchin our paths collide

The moment deserves a thought
Reflection on how it goes
Why did our paths align?

This notion I get of life
I found it goes on
Long after our paths divide
