Press Rewind

A poem about changing the past...

I would do anything to have

One little girl's eyes stay dry.

To bend the rules for one night.

To take away the tears she'll cry,

Take away her comfort in emptiness,

Make her realize she doesn't deserve this.

I wish I could press rewind,

One time,

Try to make it right.

Leave behind the rules I live by.

One night to change her life,

Make her eyes shine bright,

Show her someone cares

When she turns off the light.

Make it better for us

By doing what I must.

Save a little girl's soul

From future pains untold.

Save crippled hearts at war

Inside a small house

I've seen before.

I wish I could press rewind,

One time,

Try to make it right.

Leave behind the rules I live by.

One night to change her life,

Make her eyes shine bright,

Show her someone cares

When she turns off the light.

Take away useless fear,

Broken memories, so server,

And worthless fights

Leading up to that night.

Press Rewind,

One Time.

Give me the chance
To make my eyes stay dry.
