What Life Is With You

I was not looking for anything, but then you came
Into my life like an unexpected storm. Everything
Was intense and full of light. Nothing was the same

After that very first night. Darling, I was a string,
But I felt safe within your strong and sturdy hands.
You held on tight with your grip and let me cling

Onto you. None of this was a part of the plans
And dreams I had. Now that I have had a taste
Of you, I do not want to go back to different lands

And being strangers again. Now that I have faced
My life without you there, I do not want to go back
To that either. I want your hands around my waist

To pull me in tighter. Let the sky turn dark and black
So we can go to my favorite place of trying to count
Every one of the stars. We are not going to backtrack

To where we once were before. We dismount
Into some unfamiliar and deep feelings, as well as
With the emotions. With you I figure what life is about.
