Love, life, each other

Somehow I knew inside before the darkness consumed me,

a way to feel joy in the suffering leading to you.

So broken I was made to discover the light,

entangled by death tasting hopes.

I see now who I was always meant to be,

a man in love with the woman in you.

All that I feared before now gone,

washed away by the tears the sky has cried.

When I look into your eyes all is clear,

a blend of sorrow blessing my heart.

Falling away running scared from myself,

growing now into what I am in your arms.

There has been arguments we have faced together,

no amount of anger left as our eyes close.

Being one with who we are as lovers,

in the blood our life rushes through.
