Sep 2018
Under starlight they sit.
The city towards the south stares straight back.
Between them swayed a dance of lingering smoke.
Quiet talks with similar songs.
Inside the two burns wants and needs.
A want to see.  
A need to leave.
But for now they sit.
Waiting patiently waiting.
Dreams about a girl.
Within their minds she resides.
For she is far away.
In another land under a separate sky.
But for now they sit.
Waiting on the day to set sail from home.
Into unknown futures neither would leave alone.
One certainty both knew was true.
Never again would a storm separate the two.
But for now they sit.
Away from worry away from pain.
Love of a brother shared between one another.
People places problems exist now only in thought.
Apart there’s two but together there’s one.
Peace walks through their hearts.
Until the time they must depart.
But for now they sit.
The sun rises from behind.
Above the sky ambitions fly.
A life worth living patiently waiting.
Their first steps forward already taken.
One last peak to reach before.
Their eyes lie upon The New World.
