Poem - Catch You

Summary:

A poem about two beings - one is losing the ground under their feet, the other is desperately trying to help.

Notes:

Welcome goblins and ducklings alike!
Excuse me, but I feel like I need to provide a little bit of explanation - both about this text, and about myself.

First - I wanted to say that there was a time in my life when I was writing poems, quite a bit of them actually. But never in english. This piece was my first and (at this point in time) only attempt to write a poem in english.
Second - It was written about three years ago, and at the time I've had no idea about existence of Good Omens. This text has been buried deep in my notes until yesterday. And I didn't change anything.
I've posted it because my friends from this community, to which I sent it once I unburied it, pointed out that it's very Aziraphale&Crowley written.

It's almost uncanny how much it fits into the canon, isn't it?

Work Text:



Catch you

You scream and cry,
Hey, I will catch you.
You sob and pry,
I'm gonna catch you.
You jump and Fall,
No! Let me catch you!

You are falling down,
I'm trying to catch you.
I'll not let you drown,
I'm going to catch you.
You are losing your crown,
I just hope I can catch you.

You ripped your gown,
I tried to catch you.
I feel like a clown,
I wanted to catch you.
I lost you to Town,
I Just couldn't catch you.

You scream at me
By silence and cry.
Please look at me,
I beg you, Just try.

No scream, no cry,
Just silence and dark.
You looked at me,
Before you lost your spark.
