I remember the fear in your eyes
And the day we fell in love.
My fingers brushed yours and locked itself
That lazy autumn evening, for the first time.
As we dreaded the craters in the soil,
You asked me, "are we ready enough?”
I never knew how to say, yes;
Yes, rather in agreement with all monstering
uncertainties
In the shade of red the whistle blew,
I did not know then, I do not know now;
All I knew was to the read between the lines,
Seeking answers amidst all the chaos.
I drew you close as I held my breath
And sank my conscience deep into your heart;
The gusty wind set in trails for an awkward
silence
And the candle was blown off...
Amidst all the darkness I knew I loved you...
And always will...
