Faith

settled in the better parts of my memories  
with each thought strikes a chord
playing the song we decided would be ours  
at the sidewalk of your parents home
we spoke for hours
simple things, silly things, and yes sexual things  
as if we knew what we were talking about
really I just wanted you
it felt like warmth  
home as I’ve never felt before
 
looking up at me with your hazel green eyes
a desire burning from within
hard to explain  
the connection made no sense
I knew from the start
this was forever  
this was true love
 
my parents would call
“I’m doing good dad, I’m doing great mom”
said that with a grain of salt
because I knew I was never coming back
with every moment together
this was the future  
and they were the past
 
didn’t always appreciate what I had
the times we spent separated broke me
I pushed when I shouldn’t of
you pushed when you shouldn’t of
so godly together
but apart was a reminder how mortal we are
 
I don’t care for fairy tales
salvation, or redemption  
it’s you that I put all my faith in  
as hard as it was to explain then
I know you’ll always be there
even when I’m gone  
somehow I know  
you will still be there
