I’m standing at the corner of my life
with my heart on the left turn and the world on the right
and it is you now that I crave
for being brave is meaningless if I don’t know what it’s for.
I see us race down the midnight summer breeze again
I see us leaving behind the worries and the pain
carrying nothing but a carefree heart and a bag of our selves
believing again in the power of Love and its magical spell.
And until the sunrise comes again for us to fight another day,
let me hold you in this ephemeral moment of truth.
We look up and imagine our own sky full of stars
We look at each other and admire each other’s life full of scars.
Let me caress your wound and kiss your inadequacy
feel your shame and fall in love with your insecurities.
There’s no more judgment and fair-weather friends
no more punishment for being an imperfect man
You are enough and I am enough
and for a moment I’ve given up on the world.
