When Life gives up
I let it rest on my shoulders,
We spend hours in each other's arms,
Time flows by,
Dusk crawls into night
And the moon glides along,
Peeps in through the blinds of my room
I cleanse away the dark corners of my mind,
Twinkling stars join in to add more drama.
I allow Life to cross the threshold of my thoughts,
There are no barriers,
I easily tread into those murky roads
Where darkness turns into light.
My Life and I,
We don't compromise,
Every day we make up after a big fight,
So many questions remain unanswered,
Yet we are at peace with each other,
I quietly whisper those magical words,
Life smiles,
And we resolve our differences,
Love walks in,
I get the wings
And I soar high like an eagle.
