standing alone,
confused,
you stare at the world ahead,
a life you'd once imagined in your head...
weeping quietly,
you hurt,
you finally acknowledge the dull hum,
the loneliness that made you numb...
waiting patiently,
you hope,
refusing to go down without fighting,
struggling to emblaze the torch you're lighting...
dreaming serenely,
you wish,
to see her again, to say it out loud,
explaining that your heart is ever afloat the cloud...
singing softly,
you rejoice,
she's standing at your door, torn and dazed,
glad you weren't just a memory she crazed...
vowing silently,
you've fallen,
she's in your arms for now forever,
for her, you'd brave a year of stormy weather...
*you'll never let her go, never again...
For hope that doesn't falter...
