I Won't Let You Drown!

A poem about a dear friend of mine.

The forest grins as the night swallows the day

You walk with me when I need it most

The fog creeps in and devours the ground

I see your body begin to slip

Your expression changes as the ground begins to swallow

Don't worry

I won't let you drown

The night becomes even more hellish as the battle rages on

From one friend to another

We'll make it through the dawn

I wrestle valiantly without fail

Even though I'm so weak and frail

I manage to pull you out

Tears fall from my eyes

I hug you without hesitation

I won't let you drown I shout

I'd save you in a heartbeat...

There's no doubt
