It shouldn’t be this hard
to keep an open heart
The earth slips out under you
and you’re floating weightless
Simple gestures of affection
A pursuit without aim
Lay your hand in mine
Eyes forward, trusting
Say it with your eyes
I’m always watching
Keeping time with our feet
Imagining the music
If it should be, let it
Embrace every second
What counts is that you’re here
Slowly becoming a part of me
