Because He Was Famous

You reach out to me, and I cannot hold on to you any longer

I bridged your water
I filled your gap

I would of waited for you until a parched earth cracked open

I finally woke up!

Looking down into your life's broad ravine, and considering all you have done and where you have been

I only stood wobbling on the outer edges of your world
Of what is now too empty, and too deep for me to jump into and fall for you again.
