sentinel

i will tell you
it was awhile ago
i caught your fire
though you might not know
---
it was passed between us
with the flick of wrist
tho'it threw me off guard
i knew it was precious
---
i tried to return it,
for the responsiblity is great
yet you do not ask,
because you know it's safe
---
so, i continue to protect it
and won't assume that it is mine
i know you will want it back
it just is not the right time
