Forevermore

I learned to breathe while hidden under heavy stones

Now I know who I am and remember the light in you

I will be yours forevermore.

And I crawl out of my safe cage, scraped knees, and bleeding hands

There is only one place where I want to be

I will be yours forevermore.

That light shines bright through all your cracks

It’s illuminating my dark specks. And I know

I will be yours forevermore. 

We should be scared; we should run away, as fast as we can

But my missing piece is you; your missing piece is me

I will be yours forevermore.

They don’t understand the way you complete me

The way I heal you. Even though it is plain to see:

You will be mine forevermore.
