He never came,
Even when she called,
Even if her tone changed,
He never knew.
He never came,
Even when she asked,
Because something was wrong,
But he never knew.
He never came,
Till the end when we saw
Him sitting near her grave,
When he finally knew -
All she wanted
Was a little love,
A hug, his presence to come,
So she wouldn't have drowned
In her mind, black and deep,
In the places so out of reach,
But he never came
And he never knew
That his love could have saved her,
He never knew
That he could have been the difference,
Too late now, there is nothing to do.
