Many years have past
Many glorious sunsets over sparkling seas
And we’ve faced so much together,
People’s criticism
People’s scorn
People believing
Our love won’t work
We cut off their laughs
We sealed shut their mouths
We walked between them hand in hand
Cutting our way between their sea of doubt,
Reaching the shore laughing and safe.
Facing and accepting the fact that
We may drift away once or twice.
But totally believing
That without second thought
We’ll come back together,
Stronger than ever.
I see my reflection in your eyes
And I marvel at the happiness
Bursting out of me.
I feel like I am
A shooting star
Soaring across a rainbow
On a snowy night
Your smile shines across my fears
And lights up the dark sky of my worries
And I know I can always turn to you
When I’m in need of that shoulder to cry on.
I scream out loud
As someone stabs
Me in my back
Yet once again
Your soothing touch
Silences my screams and
Eases my pain
You bend down and help me
Pick up the pieces of my shattered dignity
And aid me in restoring
My self-esteem
No one else but you
Can make me feel
Worthy of the air I breathe
And I just wanted to
Confess to you
I breathe for you
Every day
