Path

We’re both idiots
Blindfolded
Leading astray on a joyride, along a road we are not familiar with
Only thing I ‘know’ is your hand
That is tightly grasping mine

Intertwined, I thought it was there to guide and lead me away
From darkness and sorrow
Tied with crimson thread
It leads me down, down an unfamiliar road

No matter how many times I push you away
No matter how much I wanted to run, escape the string
I could not, I can not escape your arms
Your embrace

Even if I hated you, wanting to forget
I could always feel your warmth that overwhelmed me
Heartbeats and whispers
The way you repeated words, words that I never wanted to hear

For a brief moment, my heart skipped a beat at the sound of your voice
As if magic, the sweet words consumed me;

“I will never let you go, never, ever..”

Words, like a dull weapon that struck my heart,
I bled silently
My strength fading away
At the moment I knew I could not leave you
I had to accept your warmth, your embrace

Because I love you so much, I shall continue down this road
This unfamiliar road with you
