We tread along the borders of each other's lives,
Crossing only when we come to love, or destroy one another.
Landing on our beaches with brave ships,
Then planting a seed, birthing a new land.
Likes roots from the seed we spread and flourish,
wrapping and tangling, becoming one.
The golden wheat swaying in your hair,
The velvet petals brushing your lips,
The smooth vines trailing between our fingers,
The bright sun shining through your smile,
The misty sky cloudy as milk in your eyes
The rain foreboding a storm riding on your tears,
My arms shielding and keeping you safe,
Their branches catching the raindrops.
Let's find happiness in this world we've come to form,
It's such a small thing to look for in our promised land.
