(Written for Danny and Cassi Daniels many, many moons ago…)
Met once
Held back
Detoured
On track
Passed out
Looked at you
Stood up
Said ‘I do’
Took a drink
Had a few
Gonna drown
Not a clue
Saw your hand
Grabbed it tight
Holding on
Kissed goodnight
New home
Baby
Round 2?
Maybe
Your eyes?
My chin?
Our world
Welcome in
Storm clouds
Lightning
Wind blows
Frightening
Ripped apart
No fuss
Rebuilt
Like us
I own the block that others swear
they’ve sometimes been around
It takes a little more than rain
these days to get me down
You’ve sewn me back together
When you found me, I was torn
You’re the only bit of sunlight
In my world after the storm
