A beat of breath from an angels wing,
The light touch of a butterflies sting.
Our love is a journey, our hearts are the guide,
We travel through the darkness side by side.
Hand in hand, we come to the light,
For just a little while, everything is right.
We go back and forth between bad and good,
So many times we are misunderstood.
The tears will fall, our throats will burn,
But, the smiles will always come in return.
We clench our fists, we get shoved around,
Over half the time, our walls will come down.
Our feelings get hurt, hatred was spread,
Sometimes we wonder if we should've left it unsaid?
In the end, when it's all said and done,
We know in our hearts, our brains shouldn't have won.
But here we lay all broken and scarred,
With nowhere to turn, but each others arms.
As our journey continues and that pain begins,
We learn to let our minds go, and let our hearts win.
