What Is It Between Us?

In the darkness of the starry night,

I wait for you my dear,

I am very close, yet

Losing you is my biggest fear.

There I am alone,

A silhouette in the darkness,

A mere shadow I am without

Your presence, my Princess.

Bright shines your light,

As you show me the way,

Obstacles try to move you across,

But you never once sway.

Once I fall,

And then twice- again,

But there is your hand in mine,

Which saves me the blinding pain.

You hold me in your loving arms,

And say that you won’t leave,

I nod and I just smile,

Your words are a promise I perceive.

There cometh the light,

And away you cringe,

Your highlighting presence it was once,

Which now becomes a mere bright fringe.

What of the promise,

You made to me love,

Was it just a lie,

Or did He say it from above.

No answer you give,

As you disperse in the light,

And I am alone again,

The lone warrior back to fight.

Why did you come,

If leaving was all you wanted,

I wouldn’t have seen the road ahead,

And would be able to go on undaunted.

Curses and abuses,

I give aloud to you,

But as dusk comes back,

So do you.

You don’t hold back,

And nor do I try,

You hands hold me tight,

Which makes me feel to cry.

Is it love,

Or something else I ask,

We both don’t know the answer you say,

But living it happily is just our task.

I hold you with a smile,

Tightly in my arms,

You do the same,

And we stay like this till the morning again swarms.
