A WALK IN THE COUNTRY

Our names waited in the shadows

For each other to put on the tree together...

With hearts and arrows.

We walked alone and then together,

Like two lonely stars in the night,

Your voice made sad and gentle music

Against my own

And it left a light shine

On my heart forever.
