the spark, the love, the vow, the end.

spring had sprung,
the pear blossoms hung
and the breeze was perfect.
your hands were steady,
my heart was ready
and together we leapt.
as the sun fell,
the waves swelled,
and we retired.
bound, forever-
not to sever,
everlasting fire.

‘cause we vowed:

when the flame, it dies
with the love in our eyes,
and finally we reach our hearts’ demise
we will press on.
even if one of us was wrong.
we’d start anew,
and that’s what we do.
you grew, I grew
there were things we worked through,
things I never thought I could,
things I never understood.
and now, years later, here we stand,
hand in hand.
I’m laying next to my best friend
the spark, the love, the vow, the end.
