Summary: It doesn’t matter what I have to do

If I had even given it a thought
Once my recovery was almost done
I swear I would have acted – though I ought,
I should, in actuality, have known
That something was not right. And I confess
The thought of it had wandered ’cross my mind
Right from the start. I hope you don’t think less
Of me because I seemed to be so blind.
I was a fool. I promise you I’ll try
Any and everything to sort this mess
I got us into. I won’t let her die.
It doesn’t matter what I have to do –
I promise I will bring her back to you.
