push past the hours to find mine meeting yours
working with muscles that are too sore
waiting for the month to turn
because I yearn
for you

releasing my tethers to a place I don't belong
feeling the tension pulling from inside
watching for the opposition
because you'd think
they'd try

hoping for the beginning of true contentment
dreaming of life the way it should be
happy for this changing
because it's what
I need

I measure my days by the lapse of our embraces
In the hours away from your smiling kisses
In the minutes I don't hear your true voice
I am moving forward from my past
to find a future
with you
