I have stood in a circle
Turning continually
Life has passed me
In the circle
I always remain
It is safe
My fear of leaving deadly
Knowing the demons that haunt
Give me the oxygen to survive
They also crack my shields
I turn in the circle
There you are again
Laughing easily
We are not allowed to go back
If I could
I would save you
I promise
This time I would save you
I wouldn't allow the stubbornness
As I read these words
I see my selfishness
You made choices
I know you would again
Letting you go
Is impossible
I stand here in a circle
I feel timeless
Everything changes
While I stay weeping
There are a few
Who aren't meant to shine
I am a timeless star
My light burnt out
I exist in a circle
Always turning
Always timeless
