In a beautiful way, through thought

The world is keen to break me

A cycle of the kind that never ends

Forcing me to let go of your hands.

Struggling to live through the day

Questioning my choices of everyday

No way to move ahead

Yet you are the glimpse of light I see

Let’s make a plan to run away

Away from the world

Unsure of what tomorrow brings

At least I get to be with you, unsure if it’d be our last time together.

Your face unknown to my eyes

Your smile unknown to face me

Yet I’ll stay here, knowing you’re out there

I’ll keep whispering your name, even if you can’t hear me.

A never-ending game of the forces trying to tear us apart

Time is a never-ending scape, holding a message from my heart

I’ll wait for you at the end of the world

Risking everything to hold you forever.

Dreaming of a world far from here

Not a drawn on any map beknowst

Not a view to be beheld by the eyes of youth

It’s here in our hearts.

A place where tomorrow doesn’t exist

Where fate has no power over us

Where the future isn’t just of me and you

That’s where we’ll be safe.

Let’s hide away from the world

While breathing the love we have for each other

Out of the hands of time, stretching a moment

Living a million years beside each other.
