Control; oh how it pains to lose it!
To be left with no alternative
A future non-interpretative
And yet, for a sweet moment, it is a blessing
More time to be lost in weeks of bliss
Why, I would give up all other contact for this
Perhaps the greatest gift you’ve ever given me
Aside from all of the kisses and the gold rings
Aside from the devotion, the compassion, all the loving things
Maybe the greatest is the eternal sense of optimism
To stare out into the hazy dark without fear
To know at our most lonely point, that God is near
Perhaps it is the tenacity that you display
You would be willing to sit through the fiercest rain
Just so that we could gaze up at the rainbow that remains
Maybe it’s that “never say die” spirit
You’re never fully broken in a tragedy
No matter my wrongdoing, you’re always beside me
I must say, I think it’s a cornerstone of your soul
You’re so bold as to never quit
Never backing down, not budging a whit
And it’s that steady resolve I must ask of you tonight
Because whether it’s a quarantine or a love affair
Your faith that the future will be brighter must always be there
Oh, how you inspire me to step forwards!
