We’ve had a
Tumultuous beginning,
You and I.
Endured things
That are unspeakable.
Lived in the shadows
Of our nightmares.
And yet, in each other
We’ve found a home.
I can see your pain
Like a flash of lightning
In a clear blue sky.
You can hear the sorrow
Of the abandoned child,
In my weary cries.
And I can feel your
Search for freedom
Every time that you kiss me.
You see,
I fell in love
With the darkness inside of you.
Because it offered me a dream.
A dream for a hopeful ending.
A dream of you.
A dream where we
Don’t have to run
Anymore.
Where we don’t have to
Hide.
A dream where we can
Lie in roses and tulips,
Counting every star
In the sky.
Maybe I’m being
Cautiously optimistic.
But it’s only because,
I have looked
For you in every
Ring of the inferno,
And I think I’ve finally
Found my last resting place.
