Us

A sound, true at its core, yet unbelievable.
Bound to it's own fragile roots,
It gently floats into an unsettled life.

Redemption and relief seem closer now, 
I can now see light - a small flame,
Lighting up the dark alley,
Paving the way to a brighter future.

Hold up your end, and I'll hold up mine
Let's keep the boat afloat in these delicate times.
For what I see in you is something I've rarely seen before.
A generous spirit - strong and pure.

We are only the result of what we nurture, you see.
So, this time, let us try to look at things differently.
May be the world really isn't that shrewd.
May be it is just reacting to us and our cynical view.

When we stopped and wondered for too long,
We let go of the chance to sing a song.
We forgot, that that song wasn't really ours to keep.
It was meant for a lot more than you and me.

And in that thought is where we lie,
Where the 'us' is meant to create a beautiful sky.
And that is why I cherish you more and more.
You look a lot like the person my soul was looking for.

There may be a lot left for us to see,
And we will have our share of ploys played by destiny.
And for that, I pray, more than I have ever done before,
That we are guided to find our very own shore.
