The light only I can see
It's lonely over here. Petals start to fall in the jet black quiet of dusk And my watch wraps tighter around my wrist, bound by its own time As I wait for the conscious miracle that sets life and meaning ablaze Taken into my calloused palms, engraved in the first of many letters in longing.
Where I am living holds a courageous being, a light that only I can see. It is the offspring of my values and theirs, etched in our hearts that bring salvation To souls encased between the treacherous tides of loneliness and uncertainty, Who pray into a new day, hoping to see the light as fully as I, as we.
I love you. Remember that. Someday, you will see this pillar of strength for yourself And you'd finally know what I'd do to watch it rise from the night's troubles with you. Not a day goes by without me dodging bullets for you and its glory everlasting Trust it wholly, young dreamer, for only I can see the light that brings us together at last.
