The Visitor

Here I am in a strange place, where I can't explain.
Two children I then meet, so I play game after game. 
It didn't make any sense, is one a daughter of mine?
Where is this place and what has happened to time?

I notice that the window, its view obscured by bars.
Outside I see an ambulance parked beneath the stars.
A man came in and explained what brought us here.
But in my confused mind, the reasons where not clear.

'You came here as 'children' that's how it'll always be.'
And as he closed the door, I heard him turn the key.
I thought I was a visitor here, maybe to see a friend.
But then it dawned on me, my 'visit' would never end.
