SILENCE

If we should walk
the forest black together
If we should ever share a dream
more than love I
need your hands.
So the two shall become one and we
will never divide to conquer.
When I remember the rain, the silence
that followed
the deep quiet of our first kiss
I will hope for you to hide these shades
in the color of your heart
if you should ever let me in some day
if you should grow to love me so
I will be standing here for
you, for more than love
I need your hands.
