Never Near
I've saved close calls
A heart I ne'er won
A self-seeking mind
Never mine to stall
In years of close calls
Looking up, inside, down– and out
Checked my pulse for accuracy
Still lost to an inner sound
Near had a close call
To raise me where my sight‐ might be
A bond (never near)
A voice that could have saved me—
from close calls hung up on fleeing
