Good, Old fashioned, Safetynet.

Once, I would have told you
To stay here by my side
And distance would be nothing but
Imagination's measured lines
But then I saw the world one day
I think that you did too
But where you saw the reds of love
I saw the blacks of truth
You introduced those colored
And I opened up my heart
But when you asked to pick and choose
I was cradled by the dark.
