You see it as you run towards him,
It’s in the sweet smile on his face.
It’s in the lipstick marks on his hand,
From all the kisses you place.
You can hear it as he stutters,
He can’t speak any further,
And all that it took you,
Were a few eyelash flutters.
He can feel it as you hold him tight,
As he begins to drown,
In an ocean of thoughts and fears,
You won’t let go without a fight,
You pulled him out, he held you tighter,
We survived with just some tiny scars and tears.
