I giggle and I squeeze,
I hold your hand with ease,
Impeccable our love is
Amazingly high I feel I’m flying –
I’m free.
Like a bird of prey, I descended upon you
I wanted you all for my own,
I danced around the circumstances, the fact,
That I was still unwell when discharged to home.
I spoke of colours I saw,
Protection spells cast in my mind’s eye,
You became upset with me,
Because, you wanted me to live in reality,
This formal stringent style where I did not wish to be.
And so I refused,
I pulled away,
And like a stubborn sprite I continued to dance,
Because I am blessed with you as my circumstance
And our connection would be built to last.
It simply took time,
For me to know,
That you would strictly, wholly,
Be mine.
Together, our fates sealed,
Our story daily set in stone.
