sip
the coffee was cold.
a day old.
i heated it.
poured it.
fought through it.

put on a b-film.
something about crap
films made our lives
feel more fulfilling.

we laughed.
exposed every flaw.
we held hands.
snuck
loving glances.

i have to wake up in three
hours, but all i can think
is life is luck,
even for the dumbest of us,
when you tell your
eyes to open up.

Outside the storm is raging
There is solace here
Strong the winds are waging
But you are safe with me my Dear

I will hold you close to me
And wipe away your tears
Your heart is ever safe with me
Draw closer to me Dear

You need not ever
Be afraid to just be yourself
I will place no judgment here
I'm no saint myself

Come and stand beside me
And hold your head up high
I'll shield you from the winds and rain
And never say goodbye
