Please take me with you, she said
It's loneliness I really dred
Don't leave me here in the dark, she pled
Her face all stained with tears and red
She looked so small, so frail and meek
Her eyes so sad, she could hardly speak
Her lips trembled with every word
Her unspoken fears could not be heard
She buried her face within her hands
Her legs so weak she could not stand
Every corner held a shadow representing fear
Please, she begged, please don't leave me here
