I looked forward to comfort

The comfort of knowing I’d no longer feel A weight ever growing From carrying a shield

That sigh of relief When voice fills my ears How sweet it would be To let go all my fears

The years made better Or so I had thought We’d face things together No longer distraught

Two souls swimming circles Through time and through space Returning to find That familiar grace

The way that you knew me The first ay that I felt Was freedom forthcoming Like a champions belt

A “hey! Look we made it” “Nothing left to fear Just real honest effort To map out the years

But then you fell silent And with so much on my plate I couldn’t tell if it was interference Of some screwed up fate

So now I’ll be lonely, I won’t settle for less Because I don’t have the strength For anything except fuck yes
