We glided along together Idyllic and in utter calm The bitter cold nibbled our lips As I felt the warmth from your palm Hand in hand we skated Smiling and totally as one You were my big sister I embraced us both having fun A stumble onto the floor And a tear rolled down my face Don't cry my little brother I'll protect you in this place It was then you became my amulet From all the things that are bad Security shone like a ray of light And I felt oh so glad Then I heard the sound Of a crack spreading on the ice You pushed me away in desperation This game suddenly wasn't nice Down you fell into the water And silence covered my tiny ears As your porcelain face floated beneath me Confirming the worst of my fears I sat and waited for hours To see you emerge from the depths below But ofcourse it never did happen You saved me and that's all I'll ever know
